    Smile Split some sentences by 'vbKeyEnter'

    In Excel VBA, I have the data (some sentences) from userform / Winword, how can I split the sentences by 'vbKeyEnter' and put it into array (or Cells) if i have not specified the Punctuation.

    For example :
    I have two pencils, (1st sentence, comma + vbKeyEnter)
    I put them to my bag (2nd sentence, only vbKeyEnter)
    and I go home. (3rd sentence, fullstop + vbKeyEnter)

    Target result :
    Range (B1) = I have two pencils,
    Range (C1) = I put them to my bag
    Range (D1) = and I go home.
