Say you only expect the first three cells in any of 10 rows to have data. If
the fourth cell has stuff in it, you want to take action:

Sub big_mac()
For i = 1 To 10
If IsEmpty(Cells(i, 4).Value) Then
Else
'your code goes here
End If
Next
End Sub

A macro could move down the data row-by-row. For each row, it would
calculate the number of filled (non-empty) cells. If too many cells were
filled, it could concatinate the data based upon some simple rules.

This is only an approach, not a full solution.

data is imported from a text file as comma separated

There are 4 columns, however some data in column 2 have commas in the value.
this leads to excel
shifting the data into another columns

Eg. column 3 has dates in it. but due to that extra comma in the column 2,
the text in column 2 is shifted in the column 3 (date)
and so with column 4.

Is there a way to macro this?
