Hi all,
Please could someone help me with the following: If you have a long row of phrases
e.g.
dog
happy dog
brown dog
brown happy dog
happy brown dogs
happiest brown dog
brown dog that is happy
etc etc
Is there a quick way to split each word into it's own column? If you could help me I'd be so happy as it will save me lots (and lots) of time.

Copy & paste the phrases into excel.
Select the first column.
