Hi,
I need to separate the fields using Text to column tool (\s) - but I am unable to fit the data under exact field names.
If there is no data under the field still its showing right side column data instead showing blank.
Need exact format like - if we use excel fixed width functionality(alt+d+e+f).
Please Help me on this - Thanks.

Is the CSV the "before" look, or the "after" look? Let us know what the input is, and what you'd expect the output to be.
Hi @Jaganmohan ,
the key to this issue is reading in the file to Alteryx properly. My recommendation would be to save the Jag123 Input as a text file (attached), and then read it into Alteryx as a fixed width text file:
From there, you can define the column widths for each column in your text file:
This will do all the hard parsing work for you! And then just use a couple simple prep tools to get to your desired output. I went ahead and attached a workflow that should get you to your solution with these above steps. Please confirm if this solution is useful!
Best,
Danny
Hi Danny,
Thanks for your support - Perfect.
Is there any alternative instead going with txt file - looking to convert same csv input file to mentioned output.
