Can anybody suggest a way, VBA to apply to a range of cells into one row (B2:CT2) so it's one word per line (in the same cell).

I have a code that extends the column out but it pushes all the text to one line, so it's too long.

VBA Code:
Sub AutoFitWrappedText()
    With Range("B2:CT2").EntireColumn
    .ColumnWidth = 255 ' maximum width
    .AutoFit
    End With
End Sub


Example Cell, what it says: Dog and Cat

Example Cell, what it looks like:

Code:
Do

g

an

cat

What I'm aiming for:

Code:
Dog

and

Cat

Any help is much appreciated and thank you in advance.

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
How about
VBA Code:
Sub AutoFitWrappedText()
   With Range("B2:CT2")
      .Replace " ", vbLf, xlPart, , , , False, False
      .EntireColumn.AutoFit
   End With
End Sub

I'm not sure what happened with that, but the formulas in that range did NOT like what happened, it ref # out and corrupted the formulas

You never said anything about formulae. ;)
What is the formula?

Oh, I was trying to keep it as a VBA code because the cells already have formula, it was much appreciated though :)

It may be possible, by changing the formula if that is ok?

Example
Code:
=IF(1=1,"cat and dog","")
It work with Fluff Code below
VBA Code:
Sub AutoFitWrappedText()
   With Range("B2:CT2")
      .Replace " ", """&Char(10)&""", xlPart, , , , False, False
      .WrapText = True
      .EntireColumn.AutoFit
      .EntireRow.AutoFit
      
   End With
End Sub

@Dossfm0q The VBA is replaced my formulas with the code you made, in essence, this closed vba process works, but can I get it to work with a code that's already in place?

VBA Code:
='User Dashboard'!G2

An example, and if the reference cell, G2 is empty, it would be auto-hid, which I'm not sure if it has to be converted to search for visible columns.
