    Question VBA to replace special characters with line break

    hi friends,

    I am new to VBA excel scripting.. I need a script that fulfills the following conditions..

    I have an excel sheet which contains the data as the following


    """To:sara;
    cc: abi; pup; """
    """To: loe, frez;Str, Peo; lrson
    Cc: IT; GS; """
    "

    each cell in the first column contains the same data.. now I need the output as follows

    sara
    abi
    pup
    loe,frez
    str,Peo
    irson
    IT
    GC

    which means the characters ; : " should be replaced with line break.. and the names should be displayed in the second sheet or some other column one by one.. but in the same column..


    could u please help me to do this.. many thanks in advance

    Re: VBA to replace special characters with line break

    Hi, saranyabi,

    could you attach a sample workbook to show how you data looks like as you talk about Column A having the same data but showing them here as maybe 2 lines? Or do you mean Address and CC being split into 2 rows and repeating?

    Ciao,
    Holger
