Ok so this should be a simple ask. Now there is more data, but I want to reduce the data and make it simple and still get an idea on the solution. So the input is columns A to C and the output is in columns E & F. I am open to formulas, functions or even VBA. Note the numbers being separated and pasted into the next cells. If I have missed something or there are questions let me know. Thank you for you time.

Power Query Solution

Power Query:
let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source, {}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Split Column by Delimiter" = Table.SplitColumn(#"Unpivoted Columns", "Value", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter("(", QuoteStyle.Csv), {"Value.1", "Value.2"}),
    #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Split Column by Delimiter",")","",Replacer.ReplaceText,{"Value.2"}),
    #"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Replaced Value",{"Value.1", "Value.2"})
in
    #"Removed Other Columns"

Power Query Solution. Ok While not one of the methods I mentioned, I will take this opportunity to acquaint myself with Power Query. I like a challenge and getting the above solution to work will only make me a better excel person.

Ok I believe I got the above Power Query Solution to work but it does not look like the output I need. Unless I am missing something, I need the output to look exactly like columns E and F. I have a Power Query book I will continue to read, bur for now I am still without a solution.

How do I go about reposting this problem? What do I have to do to get people to look at this problem again?
