simple question on splitting cells

[csteuart]

How do I split a small group of cells into a number of different column
without affecting the rest of the cells on the sheet? Is this eve
possible?

I have is six rows, and I want to split the first column of all o
these rows into a number of different columns, without affecting th
arrangement of columns above these six rows.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Have you tried it using data>text to columns?

I tried using data>text to columns but it didn't do what I was trying to
do. Maybe I wasn't using it properly? Or is there some other way?

WELL ... what are you trying to do?

csteuart -

From your description, it is not clear to me what you want to do.

However, all cells in a column must have the same width.

I just selected the cell(s), NOT the rows, that I wanted to split and used
data>text to columns and it worked just fine. An example of your text might
be helpful
