Except for the strange field 1 header in your output, the following awk script seems to produce the output you requested:
Code:
awk -F ' : ' '
NF == 2 {
	if(h < 7)
		printf("%s%s", $1, (++h == 7) ? ORS : OFS)
	o = f++ ? (o OFS $2) : $2
	if(f == 7) {
		print o
		o = ""
		f = 0
	}
}' OFS='|' file

which prints:
Code:
Filename|Data Format|Compression|GZIP Bytes|Unzipped Bytes|Records|Record Length
SW_PP_CTRL_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|2019064|11413730|95788|157
SW_PP_DATA_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|691778058|8316153069|60400481|158
SW_PP_DEMO_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|26240709|77053000|543250|227
SW_PP_PLANXREF_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|557904|3061930|16262|310
SW_PP_PRODUCT_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|21375|229431|1264|211
SW_PP_REASSIGN_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|32681|69399|802|130

This could have been done much more simply with:
Code:
awk -F ' : |\n' '
NF == 14 {
	if(!h) {h = 1
		print $1, $3, $5, $7, $9, $11, $13
	}
	print $2, $4, $6, $8, $10, $12, $14
}' OFS='|' RS='' file2

if the blank lines in your input file had been empty lines instead (i.e., no <space> characters on the blank lines between records).

If you want to try either of these on a Solaris/SunOS system, change awk to nawk or /usr/xpg4/bin/awk.

lr_environment

LR_ENVIRONMENT.IN(1)					  LogReport's Lire Documentation				      LR_ENVIRONMENT.IN(1)

NAME

       lr_environment - Export Lire configuration in shell script form

SYNOPSIS

       eval `lr_environment`

DESCRIPTION

       The lr_environment command is used to import the Lire configuration in Lire shell scripts.

       All of Lire configuration variables will be written in a format that can be evaled by the shell.

       Shell scripts don't usually have to use that command, since it is done by the defaults file sourced by each command.

       The old names used by when the configuration was done in shell script are also exported by this script for backward compatibility.
