    Splitting comma separated cells

    Hi, I have an excel file with 4 columns, one of which contains addresses. The addresses are separated by ";". For example, one of our cells may contain:
    12 Sesame Street; Brooklyn; New York;
    I would like to separate this cell into 3 cells if possible.
    Can anybody please help?
    Thanks

    Make sure you have 3 vacant columns to the right of the column with the address's
    Select column
    From the Data Menu Select Text To Columns > Delimited Option > Next button > Select Semicolon option > Finish Button
