Splitting the characters in the cell
 

Hi,

Select the cell and choose Data, Text to Columns, Delimited, Next, set the
delimiter to , (comma) and click finish. If there are more than 256 entries
this may cause a problem if you are running 2003 or earlier.
Highlight all the columns with addresses and choose copy, click an empty
cell and choose Edit, Paste Special, Transpose.

If there are really 300+ items highlight about half of them on the formula
bar and copy and paste those to a separate cell. The do the above steps
twice.

You could use this VBA Macro to split the cell into rows. I started with A2,
so as to preserve your original data, but it could be modified to wipe out the
original entry.

To enter this, <alt-F11 opens the VB Editor. Ensure your project is
highlighted in the Project Explorer window, then Insert/Module and paste the
code below into the window that opens.

To use it, select the cell(s) you wish to split on comma. <alt-F8 opens the
macro dialog box, RUN the macro.

===========================================
Option Explicit
Sub SplitToRows()
Const Comma As String = ","
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim sSplitArray() As String

For Each c In Selection
sSplitArray = Split(c.Value, Comma)

For i = 0 To UBound(sSplitArray)
c(i + 2, 1).Value = Replace(Trim(sSplitArray(i)), vbLf, "")
Next i
Next c
End Sub
=============================================

To split to columns, with some maximum number of columns, you can try this
macro:

==========================================
Sub SplitToColumns()
Const MaxCols As Long = 256 'set this to whatever or use inputbox
Const Comma As String = ","
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim sSplitArray() As String

For Each c In Selection
sSplitArray = Split(c.Value, Comma)

For i = 0 To UBound(sSplitArray)
c(1 + Int(i / MaxCols), 2 + i Mod MaxCols).Value =
Replace(Trim(sSplitArray(i)), vbLf, "")
Next i
Next c
End Sub
=============================================
--ron

For i = 0 To UBound(sSplitArray)
c(1 + Int(i / MaxCols), 2 + i Mod MaxCols).Value =
Replace(Trim(sSplitArray(i)), vbLf, "")
Next i
Next c
End Sub
=============================================
--ron

I noticed my newsreader wrapped a line in this second macro in the wrong spot.
So as to prevent that, I forced a line break appropriately:

=============================================
Sub SplitToColumns()
Const MaxCols As Long = 3 'set this to whatever or use inputbox
Const Comma As String = ","
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim sSplitArray() As String

For Each c In Selection
sSplitArray = Split(c.Value, Comma)

For i = 0 To UBound(sSplitArray)
c(1 + Int(i / MaxCols), 2 + i Mod MaxCols).Value = _
Replace(Trim(sSplitArray(i)), vbLf, "")
Next i
Next c
End Sub
===========================================
