    Extract data and pasting onto spreadsheet dynamically?

    I have 5 types of fruits in my inventory. Apple, Orange, Grape, Mango, Pear

    Every day there will be a request to list them down in one column according to quantities, for example,

    Request via phone/email/fax (the below layout is not fixed, may be lined up horizontally.)
    -----------
    Apple - 1
    Orange - 3
    Grape - 4
    Mango - 1
    Pear -2

    Result in B(column) of spreadsheet
    -----------
    Apple
    Orange
    Orange
    Orange
    Grape
    Grape
    Grape
    Grape
    Mango
    Pear
    Pear

    Is there any alternative way to speed this up?

    I have been doing the manual way of typing the fruit into the rows and dragging the pointer when there are more than 1 to create multiple entries.

    Shift-F11 will open the VB Editor. Insert->Module Drop the code into the module. Press F5 to run.
