Default Splitting a string into columns

Hi,

A cell has the following string:
1-5 3-4 12-2 1-3 5
ie. pairs of numbers separated by a hyphen and an odd lone number at
the end of the string

This needs to be converted into columns and rows as follows:
1 5
3 4
12 2
1 3 5

Each hyphenated pair into two columns in a row and the odd lone number
in a third column in the last row.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards,
Raj
