Hello,

I have a lot of text in 1 cell that i need to split and move to other columns on the same row.

[TABLE="width: 762"]
<colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]Using the example below, i need to take any text after the : and place it into separate columns.
so NATHAN would be in 1 column, Age 6 in the next etc etc.

Any help would be great.

Thanks. Kevin[/TD]

Hi Eric,

Further to this what you provided, is it possible not to insert a row when splitting the text.

When i run the code the Headings remain in Row 1 but the text is in Row 3 with row 2 blank.

Secondly, is it also possible to add some code which would do a find and replace on all the text in every row. Was looking to find a comma and replace with | symbol.

Kind Regards.

Kevin
