    How to move lots of data from a cell to multiple lines [SOLVED]

    Hello. I have a problem that i don't know how to solve. I have one cell with values like this:

    127;71;512;458;1250;722;2154;742;29;350;

    and what to put in lines like this:

    127
    71
    512
    458
    ...


    Has i have a lot of data in the cell and everyday it changes, i take several hours doing it manually. I have tried using the command data/ text in colluns but because i have huge data it leaves a lot out. Do you have any idea how to put that values in lines automatically?
    Thank you

    or non vba
    copy into word
    find replace ; with ^p
    then copy paste back into excel

    VBA method seems nice, i will use it in the future.

    I replaced ; with ^p and it worked in perfection. Thanks so much.
    I registered today and you already discovered the solution for a problem i was trying to solve for months.
    THANK YOU from Portugal. ))
