Default Is it possible to include a newline character in the replace text

I have strings of text such as '6,14,21,28,35,43,50,57,65'in some documents and would like to use MS Word 2010 replace utility to convert them to
'6
,14
,21
,28
,35
,43


,50
,57
,65'
i.e. replace each ',' with a newline followed by ','.

Is this possible using the said utility in MS Word? If so how?

Regards

If you only want new lines, rather than new paragraphs:
Find = ,
Replace = ^l,
