    Splitting one cell into many cells in the same row

    Hey all! I am trying to split up a cell that contains a bunch of data from a game that I play with friends. The format is usually pretty consistent, but it's not always guaranteed to have the same lengths of characters for the values in the main cell. Unfortunately, the data is continuously updating and I won't be able to use the delimited option in excel, so I am looking for help on creating a function that'd help me organize this data more effectively.

    I have the following columns:

    Tournament Banned Turns Time P1 Name P1 F1 P1 F2 P1 VP P2 Name P2 F1 P2 F2 P2 VP P3 Name P3 F1 P3 F2 P3 VP P4 Name P4 F1 P4 F2 P4 VP Notes String

    In the String column, I am pulling in data from another source that unfortunately puts it in a single string. This will look like this:

    I am trying to create a function that I can replicate across the different cells that pulls in the information from the STRING column, populating like this:

    Tournament Banned Turns Time P1 Name P1 F1 P1 F2 P1 VP P2 Name P2 F1 P2 F2 P2 VP P3 Name P3 F1 P3 F2 P3 VP P4 Name P4 F1 P4 F2 P4 VP Notes String
    Game Geeks Geeks, Zombies, Aliens 24 74 minutes Dork Orc Sinister Six Vampires (T) 15 Paroxysm Anansi Tales Mad Scientists 16 Hansel All Stars Ancient Egyptians 13 <the notes from the notes section in the STRING column> <the entire STRING column value>

    Has anyone done something like this, or know of a way to do this? Any guidance is much appreciated.

    Please upload your sample file (include desired result).
    Your explanation is ok but need to look the real data together.

    Regards.
