How to get it on one line

If I have the following:

 

Name    Value

1            Tom Heater's

1             7192 ABC Court, Denver, CO

1             424 Blemer St., Aurora, CO

1             04/12/2019

 

How can I bring them all in one line? They are currently all vertically as 4 entries, I want one entry (and one line)

 

Thanks!

Hi @amandacastro,

 

Is this what you are looking for?

If you want to change the separator, you can do so by changing the highlighted portion shown in screenshot above.

 

I hope it helps!

Hi @amandacastro ,

 

You should first create a field that will become your new column headers. I used a record ID for this example, but you can use whatever works for your instance.

 

Then you can convert to the correct structure by using a cross-tab tool.

That allows you to convert rows into columns.

 

Hope that helps,

Hi @amandacastro ,

 

if I got you right, you want to transform the entries for name "1" to one single connected entry (one row, one column)?

 

You could use a Summarize tool (Group By Name, select "Concatenate" for the Value field) or a Cross-Tab tool (Group By Name, Column Headers => Name, Values => Value, Method = Concatenate). Both will return a field with concatenated values for the field "Value" by "Name".

 

Hope this is helpful.

 

Best,

 

Roland

On the transpose, it seems to come off as some erratic output. Could you illustrate on what it would look like? Thanks
