i have a series of 5 numbers separated by commas listed in one cell. i would
like to extract each number and list them in separate cells. what is the best
way to achieve this? thanks

The easiest way would be to make sure you have the appropriate
number of empty columns to the right then use Data, Text to Columns
You have *delimited* text, and on the next dialog you would indicate
comma as your delimiter.
