Hi there,
So, I often get a long list of data in a single cell that means I have to expand the row height greatly to make all data visible as per cell C1 in the attached sample. What I would like to do is create the result in cell E2 if that is possible?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Regards
Ben

Using Power Query
Power Query is a free AddIn for Excel 2010 and 2013, and is built-in functionality from Excel 2016 onwards (where it is referred to as "Get & Transform Data").

Perfect. That will help loads. I've never seen 'CHAR' which I assume is short for character maybe.
Thanks for responding

CHAR(10) is a line break character (so you don't see it).
You're welcome & thanks for the feedback.
