Hi,
I have data in a field that I need to separate into columns, but there are no delimiters in the field -- I want to parse the data based on the position in the string. Can someone help me?
Original data:
################## (total 18 characters)
Need to parse below:
### / ## / ## / ### / ##### / ###
3 / 2 / 2 / 3 / 5 / 3

Hi @eshimizu,
You can use the regex tool to parse. the formula would be (...)(..)(..)(...)(.....)(...) hope that helps!
Is it the same positions for each and every record? If so, RegEx may be the easiest way to go.
Could use a RegEx tool with the Parse setting, and an expression of:
(.{3})(.{2})(.{2})(.{3})(.{5})(.{3})
Where the "." means any character, followed by the number of characters for that group.
Hi @eshimizu you can do this using left, substring and right formulas. I mocked up a workflow.
Perfect! Thank you!
