Hi @Jomari_Tenedero ,

Sharing some tips/suggestions it might help you to achieve your requirements.

  1. use For each file in folder activity to get all the text files one by one.
  2. in that activity have functions to get the name of the text file and full path of the text file. by using the name of the file you can get the first name and last name(using split function - string by using delimiter comma)
  3. use read text file activity to read the whole content in the text file to a string variable.
  4. use regular expression with new line to get the required values one by one from the total content.
  5. create empty data table with the headers you want and use add data row activity to add the extracted content from text file into data table.
  6. At the end of the process use write range and write the whole data into excel file.

please try the above steps to achieve the requirement. thanks.
