    Create Duplicate Rows for multiple values in a Column.

    Hi I have a sheet that looks like this:

    Col A | Col B | Col C
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    Alfred | apple, orange | 1
    Frank | apple | 2
    Bert | pineapple, apple, orange | 3

    I want it to duplicate the rows for each value in the row's Column B cell like so.

    Col A | Col B | Col C
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    Alfred | apple | 1
    Alfred | orange | 1
    Frank | apple | 2
    Bert | pineapple | 3
    Bert | apple | 3
    Bert | orange | 3

    Wondering how to do this via a macro

    Re: Create Duplicate Rows for multiple values in a Column.

    The only problem with this for me is if I have cells that appear after Column B they do not get duplicated. Wondering how I would solve that?

    Thanks!
