I provided a similar answer a few minutes ago to another person. Here is your
quick answer.

This should not be too hard. Assuming that all your data is in one column.
1: Select /highlight the range/column with the numbers and names.
2: Go to the Data menu, select TEXT TO COLUMNS.
3: Select the DELIMITED option, press NEXT
4: Select the OTHER option, enter a comma in the space provided.
5: Press NEXT.
5: Press FINISH

Default Splitting information in cells

Hi Tech1nj, Am I missing something? I have tried and end up with all of the
data in one cell. I need to split the data. Sorry I am a bit new at this and
could not work it out.

I think that I can better help you if you post a sample of your data.
Meanwhile, the step by step instructions below will work.
