Delimiter for Separate Line Breaks in Cell not Working
- Nov 01, 2021
HansVogelaar So I found a way to get it to work. All I did was edit the information that appears in the formula bar- like delete a word and then retype it-and somehow the text to column options works just fine.
Here is a shorter macro. Select the cells with multiple lines (in a column) before running the macro.
Sub SplitLines()
Selection.TextToColumns DataType:=xlDelimited, Other:=True, OtherChar:=vbLf
End Sub

Hi all. I have the exact same problem where the text to columns on multi line cells only works if I edit something in the cell, even if I just double click on the cell to enter edit mode is enough. The problem is that I have thousands of records so I can't double click on all. I tried find/replace to edit something but to no avail. Any idea pls? Thanks a lot.
