OK, I could go and trawl Google for answers but this is easier and I'm feeling lazy.
I have a column in an excel file, each cell of which holds the contents of a free text field exported as a report from a ticketing tool.
The field contains multiple entries separated by a time stamp using a uniform format. Each entry may or may not contain multiple lines and line breaks.
Can anyone suggest a way to extract the most recent entry from each cell and put them somewhere else in their own cell.
