Delineated list as separate repeating group item

I am storing data in a single DB field that is delineated by a #. I am trying to show that information read out via RG but have been banging my head and searching for a while to no avail.

Here is an example:

I have been playing around with trying to Split By but can’t seem to get it to work right. I am trying this but it keeps reading out the entire field instead of reading out each element inside the field per RG Item.

Anything would be very much appriciated!

looks like what you’ve done should work. Maybe try using a different delineator, but the use of split by operator is the correct approach…another thing to check is that when you enter the # as the split by, make sure there are no spaces before or after.

Appreciate the confirmation that the approach should work, just need to find the kink in the system. Good call out on the spaces.

Thanks!

Ok, so I got it to work and there is another step I am fighting with:


I have two fields with delineated text. I am trying to get the items to match up but I keep getting the Another Item list being red out entirely in an RG.

If both list have exact same size and exact same order,
RG dats source will be split by # (from DB field 1)
In RG cell, do DB field 2:split by #:item#current cell index

Amazing, TY!
