Hi everyone!

 

I have a column with several words delimited by a comma. I would like to split each word into a new row and achieve the below result. The number of words under column "Column2" may vary. Would you be able to help me with this? Any input would be much appreciated.

 

Column1Column2
value1word1, word2, word3
value2word1, word2, word3, wordN

 

 

Expected output:

 

Column1Column2
value1

word1

value1word2
value1

word3

value2word1
value2word2
value2word3
value2wordN

@danbzz you can achieve this by using the text to column tool. You need to select the split to rows option
