Calculation from text string

[matthew.armitage]

Hi All

I have got a web report that exports to a text string with the quantity and product. Its always in the same format, starts with "Selection:" and the the "quantity" "x" "product" and then comma. A couple of examples are below:

Selection: 1 x Rose ,1 x Pistachio ,2 x Coffee ,2 x Lemon ,2 x Chocolate ,1 x Nutella ,1 x Raspberry ,1 x Chocolate Mint ,1 x Vanilla ,1 x Pumpkin Spice ,2 x Salted Caramel ,1 x Earl Grey ,1 x Strawberries & Cream ,1 x Chocolate Chilli Mango
Selection: 1 x Pumpkin Spice ,2 x Salted Caramel ,1 x Strawberries & Cream ,1 x Raspberry ,1 x Nutella
Selection: 3 x Pistachio ,1 x Vanilla ,1 x Chocolate ,1 x Rose

What is the best way to get a grand total for each type for the entire list.

I can do it do as a one off excerise using text to colums but takes ages, so would like to automate so I can paste the report into my file and sum automatically.

Thanks

Matt
