Hi All

Can anyone help me please?

I have a long arraylist (AL). Each item contains 4 words separated by commas i.e "Test1", "Test2", "Test3", "Test4" is one item.

I would now like to have 4 more arraylists, containing the First, Second, Third and Fourth words respectively.

I have tried to use the split function, but just can't work it out

Also, I can sort by the first word of (comma separated) AL, but how do I then sort by second, third and fourth word of AL.

Thank you in advance.

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Hi CharlesChuckieCharles

This is a programme I have written

I meant I need some macro help for this.

I should have said
