I have about 3,000 cells with data separated by commas that I need to extract. For example in a single cell I have the information:
"Cell 1A" Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday

I need to extract this info from this cell so that the same row but in three cells (columns)
"Cell 1A" Monday "Cell 1B" Tuesday "Cell 1C" Wednesday

Is that possible?
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
That sounds like a job for Text to Columns

Highlight column A
Click Data - Text to Columns
Delminated - Next
Comma - Finish

Hope that helps.
