Try asap utilities (Home and Student edition), http://www.asap-utilities.com/index.php. When installed it will look like this in Excel,
Select Columns & Rows and then #18.

If that is not helpful, then DigDB, http://www.digdb.com/, but this one requires a subscription. It will also split columns. You may have to do some 'cleaning' of individual cells, such as removing leading and/or trainling spaces. A lot of this can be one with the ASAP Utilities 'Text' pull down menu.

Hi all!

Sorry to bother you, I am trying to learn some R via coursera courses and other 
internet sources yet haven’t managed to go far

And now I need to do some, I hope, not too difficult things, which I think R 
can do, yet have no idea how to make it do so

I have a big set of data (empirical) which was obtained by my colleagues and 
store at not convenient  way - all of the data in two cells of an excel table
an example of the data is in the attached file (the link)

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B64YMbf_hh5BS2tzVE9WVmV3bFU/view?usp=sharing

so the first column has a number and the second has a whole vector (I guess it 
is) which looks like
«some words in Cyrillic(the length varies)» and then the set of numbers «12*23 
34*45» (another problem that some times it is «12*23, 34*56»

And the number of raws is about 3000 so it is impossible to do manually

what I need to have at the end is to have it separately in different excel cells
- what is written in words - |  12  | 23 | 34 | 45 |

Do you think it is possible to do so using R (or something else?)

Thank you very much in advance and sorry for asking for help and so stupid 
question, the problem is - I am trying and yet haven’t even managed to install 
openSUSE onto my laptop - only Ubuntu! :)


Thank you very much!
