We cannot help you unless you provide a decent explanation of what you are

So confusing what you actually want done. Care to offer a little bit more to
go on?
 
Sorry.. first time that I have had to this..

I have a badly made spreadsheet which features mutliples figures of text
(i.e. groups of numbers in one cell). I need to get each number seperated
out into it's own row.
Basically, I am looking for a function that works exactly like the "text to
columns" function / but is "text to rows".

Hope that makes sense.. thanks for your help!
 
Use the text to columns feature to get the data to it's own column. Then,
select the data and "Paste Special"->Transpose to get it into rows

If you have a numer let's say 12345678 in A1

B1 = MID(A$1,ROW(),1) (Copy down)


or use the transpose method which David already mentioned.


Hope it helps
