Hi,
I have in my data a really long text output. Each output is linked to a survey response and the responses all end with a full stop and a semi colon. I need to be able to split the data to their own columns where this is true.
Any idea how I do this please?
Example line of text.
testone.;test two.;test three.;test four.;
Solved! Go to Solution.
