Help with parsing & formatting a paragraph of text please

Hello,

I am trying to format and parse individual customer records from a large chunk of text. This is for my business and I have been searching for a way to do this so that I can save my 25 employees a great deal of time. Below I have listed the raw text EXACTLY as I receive it. This example contains 32 and 31 individual records respectively from 2 separate clients. The number of records for each client can differ but usually is between 30 and 35 records each. It looks to me like each record is separated by a "\r\n" minus the quotes. Normally, this chunk of raw data would contain information records for about 15-20 individual clients. Below is raw data for 2 clients:

hashObj["10001222167111010001:183998:1"] = "Addr: 1212 CEDAR AVE\r\nFirst #: 555-555-1212\r\nJob ID: 183998\r\nHome #: 555-555-1213\r\nWork #: \r\nJob Cmt: PC#(555) 555-1212/AUTH USER: JOHN DOE/INST 2PRT MTA/INST 2PRT LINES/ LEC:PHONE COMPANY\r\nTech: 0999\r\nResCd: [500][203]\r\nResDesc: [TELEPHONY DEVICE][CDU NEW INSTALL]\r\nCpTime: 04/28/2010 09:30\r\nDS: COMPLETE\r\nTS: 8-10A\r\nType: VB\r\nType Desc: CB PORT INSTALL\r\nAddr2: BUSINESS ACCOUNT\r\nCity: SPRINGFIELD, IL 65321-1503\r\nName: JOHNS BUSINESS,*\r\nMap **: \r\nHead End: 4C\r\nNode: 4OO25\r\nDelq: $0.00\r\nCOD: \r\nDrop Tag1: \r\nDrop Tag2: \r\nDrop Tag3: \r\nDays Delq: 0\r\nDelq Status: \r\nReaCd: [SB]\r\nReaDesc: [DIRECT SALES]\r\nSpecial: N\r\nTC Ind: \r\nCur Bal: $0.00"

jobObj["10001248253811020001:349713:1"] = "349713 [CP : 10-12 : VT]"


and this is how I would like that raw data to be displayed in Excel:

Many of the record fields are blank as you can see above but they are still there. It seems like it shouldn't be too hard to extract certain pieces of information from that raw data but I just cannot seem to get it right when I try to code for it. Many thanks in advance for any help as this would save my employees at least an hour a day!!!

I used the attached text file to test this, it seems to work as requested:
