Hello togehter,

i have a little problem, maybe anyone can help me.

I have a data.frame, which look like this one:
      ID         Members
1     1         ; abc; def; ghi
2     2         ; abc;
3     3         ;def;

How can I create another column for each value between 2 semicolons?

The result look like this one:

      ID         Members                Member1            Member2             Member3
1     1         ; abc; def; ghi         abc                     def                     ghi
2     2         ; abc;                     abc
3     3         ;def;                      def

Maybe anyone can help me. Thank you.

Best regards.

Mat
