    Highlighting every next rows after a row containing specific text and splitting rows

    Dear Experts

    I need help on an excel file (attached) containing MCQs. I want to highlight all the questions in one color and all the explanation for each question in another color. I want to also break the Multiple choices in rows instead of keeping them in one row.

    Any help to solve this challenge would be highly appreciated.

    Use CF formulae like:

    =LEFT(A1,11)="Explanation"

    and

    =LEFT(A1,10)="Question #"

    and apply to $A$2:$A$860
