I have ton of data In Column A that is looks like 13,165 or 6,300,400,765 the problem is that it is formatted like 13165 and 6300400765 and formatted to a number. I need to parse these numbers based on the commas into separate cells but cannot based on the number format. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance.

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December

Have you tried Text2Columns?
if the number has no commas (numbers actually wont, only text will allow that), then you have nothing to use for the split.

Put a formula next to it like this:
=TEXT(A1,"0,000")

Copy down.
Copy this column and Paste Special Values.
Do a Text to Columns with comma as the delimiter
