Hi @subhajits11 ,

 

this is a case of text to columns using multiple delimiters.

Try this thread, there are many different methods there:

Hi, @subhajits11 

 

Try this.

step1. seed tag, where tag = Replace([Colm 1], '.,', '*')

step2. parse, text to columns, on the tag (which is * in this instance)

step3. select tool

 

Please mark as an acceptable solution + like, if it works for you.

Hello @RobertOdera  ,

Perfect and thanks, the main trick was lying here.

Replace([Colm 1], '.,', '*')

 

and other visitors interested in the text to columns tools, do not miss out on @mceleavey 's comment, that link has very useful and helpful information.
