Default Separating carriage return data into separate cells

Separating carriage return data into separate cells

I imported data from a SQL database that has information stored in the cell
as information separated by carriage returns.

Keep in mind what is below is all on one cell:

This row will be random text and random length but there is information that
is valuable to me in this line of text
Name:JOE,SMITH
OrderNo:99999999
TotalSubmittedAmt:$999.99
PaidAmt:$99.99
ClaimDate:99/99/9999

I need to separate these fields into separate cells so I can use the data.
On the bottom 4 lines I know that the text will be identical but the first
line of text will vary depending. The results that I am looking for are
something like the following.

Text Name OrderNo TotalSubmittedAmt PaidAmt Date
First line JOE,SMITH 99999999 999.99 99.99 99/99/9999
