Hi, I need some help please.

I have the below data, Column A is the Item Code, B is the description, C is the various colours, and D is the price.

I would like the colours to be on individual lines so each Code has multiple entries next to 1 colour option.
Any quick way of doing this?

UC101220GSM Classic Pique PoloshirtBlack, Bottle Green, Charcoal, Heather Grey, Hot Pink, French Navy, Kelly Green, Maroon, Navy, Orange, Purple, Red, Royal, Sapphire, Sky, White, Yellow£2.60
UC102250GSM Premium Pique PoloshirtBlack, Bottle Green, Heather Grey, French Navy, Maroon, Navy, Red, Royal, Sky, White, Yellow£4.00
UC103220GSM Childrens Pique PoloshirtBlack, Bottle Green, Brown, Heather Grey, Maroon, Navy, Purple, Red, Royal, Sky, White, Yellow£2.50
UC104250GSM Ultimate Pique PoloshirtBlack, Bottle Green, Navy, Red, Royal, White£4.55
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Assuming there is a heading row in row 1 and data starts in row 2, try this with a copy of your data.

VBA Code:
Sub Rearrange()
  Dim a As Variant, b As Variant, Bits As Variant
  Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long
  
  a = Range("A2", Range("D" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Value
  ReDim b(1 To Rows.Count, 1 To 4)
  For i = 1 To UBound(a)
    Bits = Split(Replace(a(i, 3), ", ", ","), ",")
    For j = 0 To UBound(Bits)
      k = k + 1
      b(k, 1) = a(i, 1): b(k, 2) = a(i, 2): b(k, 3) = Bits(j): b(k, 4) = a(i, 4)
    Next j
  Next i
  Range("F2:I2").Resize(k).Value = b
End Sub

Here is my sample data and results. Is this what you wanted?
