I would like to build a list within a single cell from a sting stored another cell. The string has a semi colon delimiter ';' to separate the string SMTP, smtp, X400, FAX. Unfortunately the x400 portion of the string also has semi colons which need to be kept. Its delimiter is a second semi colon ';;'.

I need some help expanding this answer from yesterday, which provides an example of the output i need - Create single cell list from another cell containing a text string as does the below table.

StringList (Output)
