I don’t understand what you are trying to do. Do you want to split (parse) the text at every slash (/) and display ALL of the separate sentences at once?

I think if you take this a step further and filter each list item based on the date of entry it would satisfy his needs. Then display only the list item that contains that date?

@sgirishdds what parameter are you categorizing then by? Date of completion or type of task completed?

How about a list viewer instead:
