Hello.

I have 1100 part numbers in column A, against that in Column B we have some data that has been entered on separate lines within the cell


Part NumberOrigial
Part 1Audi (A3 A4) BMW (5 6 7) Volvo (V50 S40)
Mercedes (C S) BMW (5 6 7) Volvo (V50 S40)
Part 2Mercedes (C S) BMW (5 6 7)
Citroen (C4 C6 C8)
Volvo (V50 S40)

I want to re format to put into a database.

How could i take the above data and change it to become the below? So that each make / model gets allocated to a new row against the part.


Part 1Audi (A3 A4) BMW (5 6 7) Volvo (V50 S40)
Mercedes (C S) BMW (5 6 7) Volvo (V50 S40)
Audi A3
Part 1Audi A4
Part 1BMW 5
Part 1BMW 6
Part 1BMW 7
Part 1Volvo V50
Part 1Volvo S40


Thanks,
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Why aren't the two Merc types also shown for Part 1? Then, what happens with Part 2?
