Cross Tab is Replacing space between column names with underscores

I am having around 150 rows that needs to be converted into Column Names, whenever I use Crosstab tool it auto replaces space between the column Names with Underscores is there any way to avoid this, My Column Names are dynamic and keep changing every time.

 

Is there any alternative way to do this rather than using Select tool to renames these column names just to remove Underscore in the headers

Yes ! You can use the dynamic rename tool in the developer tool pallet.

Select all of the columns (including dynamic or Unknown Fields) and select Rename mode: Formula

Then use the formula below:

replace([_CurrentField_],"_"," ")
