Hi, I am using RegEx tool to parse the data so that it have their own column. However, my regular expression is not working. I have two excel files attached together below. Can anyone help me with this? I really appreciate it if you guys can help. Thank you.

Hi @mohdhafiz 

Try this Regex out:

(\d[\d\.]+).*?([^\d]+).*?(\d[\d\.]+).*?(\d[\d\.]+)

Hi @mohdhafiz — Try this solution... you need to use "RegEx" tool:

 

1st RegEx expression for "Parse" output method:

(It will create four new columns as per your desired output)

 

(\d+)\s([^\d]+)([\d.]+)[.\s]+([\d.]+)

2nd RegEx expression for "Replace" output method:

(It will remove extra spaces or "." from the end)

 

([\s.]+$)
