Hi Ron,

Thanks for your help on this.
Due to organization policy, I have to avoid using scripting or macro.

I was hoping some kind of Excel formula could help in this.
I guess, this may be tough.

Another major constraint I have is that the list of items are not
fixed.
I have thought of using text CONCATENATE formula but the dynamic of the
data makes it challenging to formulate one that can be dynamically
used.

Thanks again for your help in this.


With Data Sets currently consisting of strings with a colon delimited header and comma delimited data, I would suggest you work with your IT department to provide a more easily manageable format for the Data Set as a first step.
That would be a first step.
