BUT!
Only that costumers with the “Option 2”As you only show 1 set it makes it more difficult to establish the start and end lines, such as if a set does not have “option 2” then what is in its place.
My initial thoughts are to put all lines for each set on 1 line then bookmark lines that have “option 2” and then remove unbookmarked lines.
To better show the example data please supply at least 1 of each type, with and without “option 2”. Insert into your reply, then select all the examples and click on the
</>button immediately above the posting window.Terry

if there is no option 2 there is nothing.
not option 1 or option 0 or something.
just clean line. -

I would have preferred to see examples in the black box as then we see data that isn’t affected by the posting engine.
However going with the little you have provided, as I said I’d look to put all lines for each set onto a single line. This makes it easier to remove the data sets we don’t want. It can also be done with 1 regex (Regular expression) however often it can be difficult for the requester to fully understand and possibly support going forward.
So the first step removes carriage return/line feeds when the next line is NOT the first one of the set. According to your one example I presume vorname is the first line. So using the Replace function we have
Find What\R(?!vorname)
Replace With;@@we could use any character here so that if needed we can recreate the individual lines later. It must be a character that does NOT occur in the lines, in this case not as a pair. As This is a regex the search mode must be “Regular expression”.So run this on a copy of the data and then use the Mark function and type “option 2” and make sure bookmark lines is ticked. Once this is run confirm that you only have option 2 sets left.
At this point I’d like to see some of the lines. Use the </> button so we see exactly what the data looks like and then I can provide another regex to keep just the data you want. Better yet, once you have entered the example lines, can you also provide using the same method how you want the data to look like once processed.

Sorry, forgot to add that once you have marked the option 2 lines then use the remove nonbookmarked lines. This removes the lines you don’t want leaving ONLY option 2 lines.

Hello @ahmed-izler and All,
Here is my solution… with regexes, of course ;-))
So, given this example, below, where :
-
Three sections, out of five, end with
Option 2 -
A variable amount of empty lines, even
0, exists between sections -
Two sections are preceded with leadings space and tabulation characters
