Breaking hierarchical list into separate columns

Do I get rep points for solving this myself? Here is the code in case anyone is interested. It can be adjust to your own needs with minor coding experience.

HTML Code: 

You get Rep points for using a forum as it should be used - having a go rather than sitting back and just waiting for someone to do it for you - so for that.

However, it can be shortened.

Use the information you have - a cell starts with a space so it needs to be moved to another column - the number of columns to move it is simply the number of spaces at the start. So a simple calculation will give you that.
