Regex Parsing with no Delimiter

Peddsairam

Hi SME,

 

I have "Concat data" in the attached Excel; the concatenated data doesn't have any delimiter to parse into different columns. I wanted to know if the data can be separated or not. Here, we have a thing where the data can be separated based on "Q", where each line ends and the next line is to start, but I don't know how to use any tool to differentiate these values. would like to know if it's possible to use the RegEx tool to parse or any other tools to parse the data into different columns, for example, u can check the Excel output sheet. I want to know if any tools will be helpful to parse this.

 

 

Thanks, 

SR.
