I have a couple of questions for you:
1) How do you obtain the string?
If that's not important for this exercise (you'll supply the string), I can
use StrValue as the variable and your can set this value however you may.
2) I believe you're saying that you want the user to enter the number of
rows/columns desired.
I would suggest determining the number of values, then use a userform to
enter the row/column values.
That way, if they enter the number of rows, the number of columns will be
adjusted to match.
If they change the number of columns, the number of rows will be adjusted.
3) How do you want to fill the matrix?
Fill across the columns first (in row 1) before moving to the next row, or
Fill the rows vertically before moving to the next column?

Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ Convert a CSV data string into Rows & Columns
Hi All,
I have a string with comma separated values (say N values)
(E.g. 233, 127, 139, 38, 560, 72, 56, 67, 45, 232, 28, 242, 344, 234, 034, 072,
342, 34, 5, 34, 34, 6, 782, 342, 34, 234, 2, 423, 45, 23, 21, 56, 03, 08, 56,
22, 94, 22.4, 23.1, 40, 45, 242, 475, 21, 24, 23, 423, 444, 24, 75, 67)
I would like to build a macro that does the following:
1. Breaks this string values into individual cells (say 1 row X N
columns, or 1
column X N rows).
2. It ask the user to enter the no. of rows (say P) and no. of columns
(say Q);
and then moves the data into "P" Rows X "Q" Columns.
3. it should check that N = P X Q (just to confirm that the data will
fit into
P X Q table).
For E.g. the above e.g. data string has 36 values, the macro should be able to
covert these into a 1 X 36, 2 X 18, 3 X 12, 4 X 9, 6 X 6, 9 X 4, 12 X 3, 18 X 2
and 36 X 1 rows and columns, as per the rows & columns desired by the user.
I believe this should be doable using a combination of "UBound" and "Offset",
but I'm just not able to piece together the logic.
Cheers !
