@clmc9601 thank you very much. I have been meaning to download this, I used it for today's (Day 7) challenge, and it worked a treat!

I love these kinds of challenges where you have to break the data up, rearrange it, then paste it back together!

Thankfully the only operators were + and *... I was afraid I'd have to break out the Dynamic Replace tool for this one!

I feel like I could have done Part 2 with less tools, but I did get the correct answer! 

[AncientPandaman]

straight forward question.

Nice one!

I managed to identify the exact location space between numbers.
And when we import the CSV file, it seems that the trailing Space is elimiated which took me a lot of time to check my flow.

I overcomplicated it for myself two ways (but eventually prevailed):

Spoiler

1. Forgot to check the warnings for truncated records in the full input.
2. Anticipated Part Two complexity would incorporate additional operands, not just reordering of inputs.
