Hello!
I am working with data that comes in on 20+ .txt files. I am struggling with parsing the data since there is no delimiter. Each line needed begins with "02" (which is filtered). The workflow then splits the data up based on the source of the data (XGR, XTM, X12 and RECORD). My current workflow is using Text to Columns for anything that has two spaces. This does not work on the entire string as there are areas where the data does not have breaks in space. I believe RegEx may be the solution, however each time I try to use the tool, I receive NULL" in the columns created.
Here is a sample of each source type mentioned:

I have attached an example illustration of where data should be separated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thank you. I would still need to solve for items that do not have spacing and there will also be items that have spacing that should stay together.
To simplify, I am trying to break out this line: 0000000000000000000000000135.850USDZ5629ABC002651925-JAN-24, what I need it to do is create columns for 135.85 USD Z5629 ABC0026519 25-JAN-24
