What a way to kick-off the weekend with a revisit of my 'love-hate' relationship with RegEx.
Spoiler
It took me a while to even find the data to know what to hunt for in the data set, and then messing around with the RegEg Match function in the RegEx Parse just to get the syntax right and then put that into the multi-row tools.

Spoiler
I think this is a unique way to use the generate rows tool here. Gets the job done for this nasty file; but not the next nasty file if it is not structured exactly the same.
