Hello, there 500 rows and there are max 15 cols of data at the moment, but the spreadsheet could change next month and have more cols of data.

thankyou

and are you saying that [highlight]1,a,b,c,d[/highlight] is all in one cell?

and are you saying that you want the result, [highlight]1,a[/highlight] in one cell?

Hello, the data is currently in multiple cells but i can easily convert to 2 cells id required..

would like 1 in the first cell and the data in the next, this would then be the same for each row?

is this info ok?

thanks

So there are or are not COMMAS in your data?

Your examples are not clear!
