Hi, I have these strings and I need to split them in order to obtain the 5th column with numbers.

 

How can I do it?

Hi @nilashiwers 

 

Can you provide some sample input and expected output in a file it will help us get a better understanding of the usecase.

Hi @nilashiwers 

 

Agree with @atcodedog05, data would be helpful. At first glance you may be working with a fixed width text file. Here's an article that might help:

Sorry, here is the sample input and expected output file.

I'm beginner with alteryx, I tried to find some articles but didn't find the solution for my case.

Thank you!

Hi @nilashiwers 

 

Here's my initial pass at this. I'm struggling to break out the Dare/Avare fields, but hopefully this gets you in the right direction.
