Adding additional rows under a row, depending on the amount of used cells in a range - excel

Question

basically I need to split a cell that has a few values, seperated by a comma into more cells. Then i need to create the exact amount of the cells under the new cells to be able to transpose this range later to have a new table.
In the picture you can see an example of what I have and what I need. I needed to anonymyze the data. Also I have hundreds of rows that need to changed like the 2 in the example.
Ths is my current code:
Sub texttocolumns()
Dim rng As Range
Dim x As Integer
x = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For i = x - 2 To 1
Cells(2 + i, 8).texttocolumns _
Destination:=Cells(2 + i, 9), _
Comma:=True
k = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA("A" & "2 + i"" & "":" & "AT1")
Cells(2 + i, 1).Rows(k).Insert
Next i
End Sub
I can't find my mistake at the moment, could someone please help me out? thanks!

Answer 1

Since the output result is posted to a different location the expensive task of inserting rows can be avoided.
Try this procedure, which also avoids working with the source range by generating from it two Arrays:
An array containing the fixed fields
An array containing the field that needs to be split
The Procedure:
Sub Range_Split_A_Field()
Dim wsTrg As Worksheet, rgOutput As Range
Dim aFld_1To5 As Variant, aFld_6 As Variant
Dim aFld As Variant
Dim lRow As Long, L As Long
lRow = 3
Set wsTrg = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sht(2)")
Application.Goto wsTrg.Cells(1), 1
With wsTrg.Cells(lRow, 1).CurrentRegion
Set rgOutput = .Rows(1).Offset(0, 10)
.Rows(1).Copy
rgOutput.PasteSpecial
Application.CutCopyMode = False
aFld_1To5 = .Offset(1, 0).Resize(-1 + .Rows.Count, 5).Value2
aFld_6 = .Offset(1, 5).Resize(-1 + .Rows.Count, 1).Value2
End With
lRow = 1
For L = 1 To UBound(aFld_1To5)
aFld = aFld_6(L, 1)
If aFld = vbNullString Then
rgOutput.Offset(lRow).Resize(1, 5).Value = WorksheetFunction.Index(aFld_1To5, L, 0)
rgOutput.Offset(lRow, 5).Resize(1, 1).Value = aFld
lRow = 1 + lRow
Else
aFld = Split(aFld, Chr(44))
aFld = WorksheetFunction.Transpose(aFld)
rgOutput.Offset(lRow).Resize(UBound(aFld), 5).Value = WorksheetFunction.Index(aFld_1To5, L, 0)
rgOutput.Offset(lRow, 5).Resize(UBound(aFld), 1).Value = aFld
lRow = lRow + UBound(aFld)
End If: Next
End Sub

Would something like this work:
'A1 = A,B,C,D,E,F,G
'A2 = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7
'A3 = A!B!C!D!E!F!G
'Test procedure will result in:
'A - G in cells A1:A7
'1,2,3,4,5,6,7 in cell A8.
'A - G in cells A9:A15
Sub Test()
TextToColumns Sheet1.Range("A1")
TextToColumns Sheet1.Range("A9"), "!"
End Sub
Public Sub TextToColumns(Target As Range, Optional Delimiter As String = ",")
Dim rng As Range
Dim lCount As Long
Dim x As Long
'How many delimiters in target string?
lCount = Len(Target) - Len(Replace(Target, Delimiter, ""))
'Add the blank rows.
For x = 1 To lCount + 1
Target.Offset(1).Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
Next x
'Split the string.
Target.TextToColumns Target, xlDelimited, xlTextQualifierNone, , , , , , True, Delimiter
'Use TRANSPOSE formula to paste to rows and then remove formula.
With Target.Offset(1).Resize(lCount + 1, 1)
.FormulaArray = "=TRANSPOSE(R" & Target.Row & "C:R" & Target.Row & "C" & lCount + 1 & ")"
.Value = .Value
End With
'Delete the original text string.
Target.EntireRow.Delete
End Sub
Edit:
To use from the Macro dialog box you could add this small procedure:
Public Sub Test()
Dim y As Long
y = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
With ActiveSheet
For y = 5 To 1 Step -1
TextToColumns .Cells(y, 1)
Next y
End With
End Sub
Note: ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count is a terrible way to find the last row.
