Splitting Entries into 2 columns for same field

I need AD auth events and some have multiple entries for Account Name field. One entry is a hyphen (-). Can someone help me build a query to split these into 2 columns, so I can use the entry with the value and not the one with hyphen (-)

Subject:
Security ID: S-1-0-0
Account Name: -
Account Domain: -
Logon ID: 0X0

Logon Type: 3

Account For which Logon failed:

Security ID: S-1-0-0
Account Name: xyz
Account Domain: domain.local

I need only the Account name information in the event where logon failed. But when I use an eval, am unable to get only 'xyz'

Any help is appreciated.
