Getting values into their own row

Deano478

Hi all,

 

A colleague of mine provided me with a messy extract where they multiple values stuffed into one row like so:

 

Is there any way to separate these values out into their own row?

 

My head is beyond melted with this.

 

Cheers for any help provided.

 

Input:

400.00 21.00 138.19 401.53 727.72 891.44
329.57
1500.00 60.00 28.20 9.99 117.27 9.99 1920.00

88.00 189.00 329.57 64.2 400.00 15.00 159.25

Hey @binuacs it would look something like this that's just the first few lines:

 

400
21
138.19
401.53
727.72
891.44
329.57
1500
60
28.2
9.99
117.27
9.99
1920
