This looks correct - have you selected the correct column to look in? You are looking with field “Blob” which doesn’t seem right to me, it should be a column with the text you are looking to replace

Thnx for coming back quickly :-)

 

Blob column is correct. Blob contains e.g. SAF | eMail: xxxxxxxx | Address: 1 Lincoln Place | Tel: 0123 456 1234 | Bill: $5.000

 

So, many rows exist. Trying to stadardise data because some rows say eMail. Others say eMa il etc. So, just cleaning Blob before splitting data using the pipe....
