I have an Excel sheet with 500 values in column A. I am looking for a formula to split the text in column A by semicolon and then append index(starting from 0) and then equal to sign and then the text. e.g 1=aaa.....

Example Text in Column A:
;aaa.;bbb.;ccc.

Desired Output:
0=;1=aaa.;2=bbb.;3=ccc.


I have tried the following code but it starts from 1 instead of 0.
=LET(cel,A1,arr,TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(cel,";",REPT(" ",999)),(ROW($ZZ$1:INDEX($ZZ:$ZZ,LEN(cel)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(cel,";",""))+1))-1)*999+1,999)),TEXTJOIN(";",,SEQUENCE(COUNTA(arr))&"="&arr))
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

How about
Excel Formula:
=LET(cel,";"&A2&";",s,SEQUENCE(,LEN(cel)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(cel,";",""))-1),arr,REPLACE(LEFT(cel,FIND("^",SUBSTITUTE(cel,";","^",s+1))-1),1,FIND("^",SUBSTITUTE(cel,";","^",s)),""),TEXTJOIN(";",,s-1&"="&arr))
