This took a lot longer then I wanted it to. I need to practice more data prep. I also need to practice Regex.

My solution attached.

 

Had to peek at the solution to figure out what to do.

 

Added some commentary around the regex expressions to explain what it is doing and added a couple of extra steps to convert some data types at the end (specifically date and numeric types) so that the dataset is primed for analysis.

I couldn't figure out the pattern of the numerical values here, had too take a peek at a solution to find the pattern.
Once I knew which rows contained the data it all made sense.

This was an anxiety-inducing dataset.  What I built solves the problem, but would not be the best solution for a dynamic situation where report structure might look different in a given timeframe.

 

Glad to wash my hands on this and mark it:

 

Solved.  😊

Solved! I had to peek at the solution to find where the data was since I was lost
