I use this to split a url, it works fine unless there is a question mark, I have been struggling to set it to split the url if there is a ? in it. can someone please advise

VBA Code:
   If InStr(x, "/about") = 0 Then
            z = Split(x, "/")
        For j = LBound(z) To UBound(z)
            If InStr(z(j), "Google.com") Then x = "https://www.Google.com/" & z(j + 1) & "/about": Exit For
        Next
    End If
    
       If InStr(x, "?") = 0 Then
            z = Split(x, "?")
        For j = LBound(z) To UBound(z)
            If InStr(z(j), "Google.com") Then x = "https://www.Google.com/" & z(j + 1) & "/about": Exit For
        Next
    End If

It ok I fixed it with a Text to column, before the above code runs

VBA Code:
 Set wb = ThisWorkbook
   With wb.Sheets("Data")
   
        .Columns("A:A").TextToColumns _
            Destination:=Range("A1"), _
            DataType:=xlDelimited, _
            TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, _
            ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, _
            Tab:=True, _
            Semicolon:=False, _
            Comma:=False, _
            Space:=False, _
            Other:=True, _
            OtherChar:="?", _
            FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 9))
     End With
