I have a .txt file from monitoring data.
it comes in following format

Example:
3,673,49,2,43,89,8,138,45,9,49,675 etc.

1) The data is in groups of 3 .. but comes as ONE string with commas.
2) 2nd number has a reference table for description in another Excel table

Say:
673 | RRRRR
43 | YYY
138 | GFR

need .txt to open in this format

Cell A Cell B Cell C Cell D

1 3 RRRRR 49
2 2 YYY 89
3 8 GFR 45

and so on.

Some guidance on how this is done would be great.
