Column Splitter

Split one table column into multiple columns online using delimiters, positions, or patterns locally in your browser.

This tool runs in your browser. Your input is processed locally and is not uploaded.

About this Tool

Use this Column Splitter when one field contains several values that should become separate columns. The tool splits by delimiter, split at a fixed position, limit the number of splits, trim results, and name the new columns before export. It is focused on splitting one existing column, unlike Text to Columns, which starts from pasted structured text.

Examples

  • full_name,email Ada Lovelace,ada [at] example.com Ben Ortiz,ben [at] example.com Cy Chen,cy [at] example.com

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my table data uploaded to a server?

No. The tool parses, transforms, previews, and exports data locally in your browser without uploading your input.

FAQ
What if a row has fewer split parts?

Missing parts become empty cells so each row still has the same columns.

FAQ
Can I keep the original column?

Yes. You can keep, hide, or remove the original combined column.

FAQ
Can the split delimiter be customized?

Yes. Common delimiters such as comma, space, slash, pipe, and custom text are supported.

FAQ
What file sizes are practical in the browser?

Small and medium tables are the best fit. Very large files can use a lot of memory because parsing, previews, and exported results all live inside the browser tab.
