Data to Column, remove unwanted fields

Hello

I have long list of data saved in word, i want to copy it to excel and with the help of Macro, i want to convert it data to column, but remove some duplicate fields and have same data in one column.

i have created a macro with steps records, however some of the fields have multiple entries and due to which the row has additional fields, now i want to remove those additional fields, so that i have one data type in one column only, please see the attached word and excel file for example

below is the code from VBA editor

With one record from the Word file (e.g. the first one) can you show the result you want in Excel

Is the list of headers shown in your example, the one you want ?
In other words, there is not the same list of data in all records: Record 3 has 2 allias

A possibility could be:
1 - You copy paste the data from Word to an "working sheet" in Excel*
2 - You launch next macro
The first record is used to prepare the list of items

What are your comments about the macro sent, is it doing the job, if not give details

OK
In the file attached in sheet "working Sheet" paste the data from the Word file.
Then, while you are in "Working Sheet" do control + a to launch macro "Act1"
