How to split texts from dynamic range?-CodePudding

I have a long dataset downloaded from ERP system. They are pipe | delimited. I have to split then to individual column. I can use FILTERXML() or TEXTSPLIT() to split them to columns. I was trying to use Textsplit function dynamically so that if any new data comes to end row, it automatically split to columns. Below is my sample data (each line in a single cell).

So far I can apply TEXTSPLIT() with TEXTJOIN() to split dynamically like-

=TEXTSPLIT(TEXTJOIN("#",TRUE,A1:A15),"|","#")

Above formula give me desired result but I can't use this for long dataset as TEXTJOIN() has character limit. So, how can I split text from dynamic range by excel built-in function?

CodePudding user response：

Have a go with MAKEARRAY():

Formula in B1:

=LET(X,TEXTBEFORE(SUBSTITUTE(A1:A15," (","|",1),")",-1),MAKEARRAY(ROWS(X),LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|","")) 1,LAMBDA(r,c,TEXTAFTER("|"&TEXTBEFORE(INDEX(X,r),"|",c),"|",-1))))

Or, a bit more dynamic:

=LET(X,TEXTBEFORE(SUBSTITUTE(A1:INDEX(A:A,MATCH("ZZZ",A:A))," (","|",1),")",-1),MAKEARRAY(ROWS(X),LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"|","")) 1,LAMBDA(r,c,TEXTAFTER("|"&TEXTBEFORE(INDEX(X,r),"|",c),"|",-1))))
