X regular expression
Find what: ', '
Replace with: '\t'
Note ? space after comma.
Cross fingers.
Replace all.

The HOW-TOs forum is not the the right one in which to ask questions. As it says in one place:
Instructional HowTos, posted by users. No questions here please
and in another:
PLEASE DO NOT POST QUESTIONS HERE
But here is an answer:

<F8>):
Find what: _ [Replace the underscore with a space]
Replace with: \t
[X] Regular expression
Replace All
