I have a string of data like this in one cell.

I need each piece of the cell that is separated by a semi-colon put into a separate column, instead of all three pieces of data all in one column.

=IFNA(DROP(REDUCE("",SEQUENCE(ROWS(A2:A4)),LAMBDA(u,v,VSTACK(u,TEXTSPLIT(INDEX(A2:A4,v),";")))),1),"")
With Office 365 or Excel for the web you can apply this formula.
Hi BethP107
One way => Split text into different columns with the Convert Text to Columns Wizard
Another if you run 365 => TEXTSPLIT function
