    Separate data at commas

    Hi,

    I've imported a large document to excel. It contains 118 rows of information. My problem is that all the information is in column A. Every cell contains long sentences with information. The information is divided by a comma-sign (,). What i want to do is to seperate the information by columns instead of a commasign. So for example:

    ...A....................................................B....C.....D
    1 Div,Date,HomeTeam,AwayTeam,FTHG
    Becomes:

    ......A....B ........C.............D..........E
    1 Div Date HomeTeam AwayTeam FTHG


    Is there any smart way to do this??



    Thanks for your help guys.

    Best regards,

    Marcus
