How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Welcome to the Board!

Try this formula (for an entry in cell A1):
Code:
=LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-10) & "," & RIGHT(A1,10)

One other question … sorry - how do I convert that information now into actual "data" so that I can use the delimited function? Thank you

Select the column with the formulas, do a Copy -> Paste Special -> Values and click enter.
