Split 1 column into numerous columns based on patterns
Hi,
I have a text file 'Item_List.txt' containing only 1 column. This column lists different products, each separated by the same generic string header "NEW PRODUCT, VERSION 1.1". After this the name of the product is given, then a delimiter string "PRODUCT FIELD", and then the name of the field itself. After the field name comes the data which in this example only has 1 entry per field but will have more.
My desired output file is as follows;
Basically I require to list each product with its relevant field columns ordered from left to right. I should note there is no limit on the number of fields each product has.
I have tried using csplit, awk, sed, cut & paste but with no luck. I apologize for not inserting my code as what i have does not work and i didn't want to confuse things.
I'm not expecting the answer, but even just a pointer on to how best go about this task. Even a rough structure would be good and i could add my own code to that.

Format is : city<comma><space>region<space>postal code
abc, xyz 123456

column
COLUMN(1) BSD General Commands Manual COLUMN(1)NAME
column -- columnate lists
SYNOPSIS
column [-tx] [-c columns] [-s sep] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
The column utility formats its input into multiple columns. Rows are filled before columns. Input is taken from file operands, or, by
default, from the standard input. Empty lines are ignored.
The options are as follows:
-c Output is formatted for a display columns wide.
-s Specify a set of characters to be used to delimit columns for the -t option.
-t Determine the number of columns the input contains and create a table. Columns are delimited with whitespace, by default, or with
the characters supplied using the -s option. Useful for pretty-printing displays.
-x Fill columns before filling rows.
ENVIRONMENT
The COLUMNS, LANG, LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE environment variables affect the execution of column as described in environ(7).
EXIT STATUS
The column utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
EXAMPLES
(printf "PERM LINKS OWNER GROUP SIZE MONTH DAY " ;
printf "HH:MM/YEAR NAME
" ;
ls -l | sed 1d) | column -t
SEE ALSO colrm(1), ls(1), paste(1), sort(1)HISTORY
The column command appeared in 4.3BSD-Reno.
BUGS
Input lines are limited to LINE_MAX (2048) bytes in length.
