You need to replace the comma/space with a hard return

Edit Replace
in the replace what field, enter comma space
in the replace with field, just enter CNTRL-j

and do a replace all.

You should see:

"72411 Diet Clerk 2150-3
72411 Dietitians Assistant 1706-2
72411 Clinical Dietitian 8300-5
72411 Clinical Dietitian (Non-Exempt) 8305-1
72411 Supr Dietitian Services 8470-1"

Thanks Gary, but I want to keep all this data in one cell. When I hit enter
it takes me down the the next cell. Any suggestions?

The suggested solution will leave all the data in one cell.

The editreplace removes the commas and replaces with an in-cell line feed.

Re-read and try again.

Thanks Gord. That did work.

When I am entering the data, how do I get it to format without the , ? Or
do I need to do it this way all the time?

How do you enter the data?

If manually, don't bother typing the comma<space just hot Alt + Enter when you
want a line feed.

i.e. manually

This is line one Alt + Enter for linefeed
This is line two Alt + Enter for linefeed
This is line three Enter to leave the cell

If coming in from an external source there may be a way to control that, but
need more detail on source.
