Import txt to table issue with new lines created when not EOL

I am importing some text data from a set of files I have created in python (converting metadata/xml records to text) into excel. It mostly works fine except that there are new lines inserted at points where the text is simply in a paragraph. Is it possible to get excel to automatically maintain data in the same row until it meets an escape/new character?

I have attached

1. anz*_log.txt -- Raw text file where I am using "^" as the delimiter. I can force it to add another character at the end of each known row if excel can use this to only create new lines when this exists.
2. anz*_xml.xls Excel Import - worksheet (*log) the raw import data) and cleaned where I have used formulas to get the values in properly.
3. rowChar_anz*log.txt - Raw text file with ':;:' at start of each row to show that it should be a new row (same as 1 but with additional delimiter for row)

This is just on a test dataset and I need to run this on 1000's of files. See the issues in row 9,13, 54 etc.

best,
