Hi All,

 

I'm having trouble concatenating numbers in a given column to express it with semicolons.

 

Check Below:

 

F1
1938813
1941389
1941382
1941530
1942941
1943184
1943638
1943636

But I want a semicolon between each string

 

1938813;1941389;1941382;1941530;1942941;1943184;1943638;1943636

 

I would appreciate the help! 🙂 

 

** Update** thank you all, this was a huge help 🙂

Hi @Shan_Drex12 ,

 

I've mocked up a workflow that answers your question.

You need a field to become your column header and then you can use the cross-tab tool. Let me know if that worked for you.

Hi @Shan_Drex12 

 

You can use the Summarize tool to concatenate, and even change the separator to your liking! Just make sure to convert the column you're wanting to concatenate to a string first. I'd recommend a V_WString, since it will adapt to character size as needed.

If this solves your issue please mark the answer as correct, if not let me know!

 

Thanks!

Basically same with @AngelosPachis , but I did not use Record ID.
The Summarize Tool will concatenate the rows if the input is a string.1022-Shan_Drex12.PNG

Hi @Shan_Drex12 , as there is no specified criteria so I assume you are just trying to concatenate a single column, so here are 2 possible solutions that I can think of.

I hope this helps and mark this post as solution if it works for you.

 

Thanks.
