Hi guys,

Looking for some help /guidance in reading the attached sample file.

 

1. Products in Field A can grow in rows

2. Sub Group in Field B can grow in rows

3. Year and Months will grow in columns

 

Aiming to load data in database table and can't do that because the years and months are in cross tab.

Hi @alibink,

 

I took a shot at one way to load the data. It used some transpose tools to load the which will dynamic add new columns in the future months. It does change the structure of the data some so it might not work for you ultimate goal. Feel free to let us know more specifically what you need.
