Hi ak77,
Dynamic column splitting in Power Query Editor, adapting to varying delimiters, can be achieved with clever M code manipulation.
While I'd love to explain the process in detail here, there's an excellent video available that walks you through the steps of dynamically splitting a column. I recommend watching the video and following the instructions provided, as it will guide you effectively in meeting your specific requirements.

I also implemented the steps on the pbix you shared, to refresh my knowledge. I have attached the transformed pbix file and the Excel dataset used as the source
