Splitting raw field after transaction

I used transaction to combine 2 rows of raw fields:

raw

Is there a simple way to split the raw field into "raw1" and "raw2" as below (preferably without using rex)?

rawraw1raw2

Using mvindex on the multivalue raw field

| eval raw1=mvindex(raw,0), raw2=mvindex(raw,1)

Also just FYI - as a generic solution to splitting multivalue fields where you don't always know you will have 2 fields, you can do this sort of thing

| foreach 0 1 2 3 4 5 [ eval raw<<FIELD>>=mvindex(raw,<<FIELD>>) ]

which would split up to 6 values of a multi-value field into raw0, raw1, raw2 etc.
