The Dynamic Select tool allows for field selection by field type (or an expression).

That is what I would start with.

Maybe convert all fields to string (including unknown), then use auto field tool which converts string fields to string/numeric data types and slap a details tool or field summary tool to get more insights. Final step, I agree with Rod to use dymanic select to split numeric/text fields.
