    Copy multiple numbers from a single cell to individual cells

    I am using Excel 2010.

    At work, we've got a program that outputs the results of a search into an Excel file, in column 1 below.

    17,43,61,63 17 43 61 63
    23,29,53,57,77,79 23 29 53 57 77 79
    17,29,63,69,71,75,79 17 29 63 69 71 75 79
    11,43 11 43
    57 57

    I need to get that list of numbers listed out to the right, with one number per cell. The list in column one could possibly contain from 1 to 20 numbers, and the last number is always without the comma after it.

    I know absolutely nothing about how to go about getting this done. I know it's probably not possible with a "normal" macro. If one of you gurus here could help out, I would be immensely greatful.

    Thank you in advance.

    Steve

    Why don't you use Text to Columns. Use comma as delimiter.

    OH MY GOD!!!!

    That was too easy. I am so sorry for wasting space on this forum with a problem as easy to fix as this. I'm so embarrassed.

    Thank you, sktneer.

    Thanks for pointing out the "add rep". I didn't see that. And I did figure out how to use it.

    Thanks so much for helping out this newb.
