Is the above Package text correct as shown... there is no space between the "DEL" and the "COMEX"?

There may be a more elegant way but this seems to work. Results on Sheet2.
Code: 
Sub SplitCell()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim LastRow As Long
    LastRow = Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
    Dim i As Long
    Dim splitPkg As Variant
    Dim pkg As Range
    For Each pkg In Range("D2:D" & LastRow)
        splitPkg = Split(pkg, ",")
        For i = LBound(splitPkg) To UBound(splitPkg)
            If splitPkg(i) Like "*CBOT*" Then
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -3)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -2)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -1)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = "CBOT"
            ElseIf splitPkg(i) Like "*COMEX*" Then
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -3)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -2)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -1)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = "COMEX"
            ElseIf splitPkg(i) Like "*NYMEX*" Then
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -3)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -2)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -1)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = "NYMEX"
            ElseIf splitPkg(i) Like "*CME*" Then
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -3)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -2)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = pkg.Offset(0, -1)
                Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = "CME"
            End If
        Next i
    Next pkg
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

My apologies there is indeed a space between "DEL" and "COMEX" .

Another question... is there a blank row between your data (you example looks like there is a blank cell between each Package cell)?

Here is another macro that you can consider...
Code: 
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Sub ReformatDataLayout()
  Dim R As Long, X As Long, PackageCount As Long, Package As Variant, Data As Variant, Result As Variant
  PackageCount = Evaluate("SUM((LEN(D1:D4)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(D1:D4,CHAR(160),"" ""),{""CME"",""NYMEX"",""CBOT"",""COMEX""},"""")))/{3,5,4,5})")
  Data = Range("A1").CurrentRegion
  ReDim Result(1 To PackageCount, 1 To 4)
  For R = 2 To UBound(Data)
    For Each Package In Array("CME", "CBOT", "COMEX", "NYMEX")
      If InStr(Data(R, 4), Package) Then
        X = X + 1
        Result(X, 1) = Data(R, 1)
        Result(X, 2) = Data(R, 2)
        Result(X, 3) = Data(R, 3)
        Result(X, 4) = Package
      End If
    Next
  Next
  Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1:D1").Value = Range("A1:D1").Value
  Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A2").Resize(UBound(Result), 4) = Result
End Sub[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]
