Unique Value from each field with counts from CSV

Hi Friends

 

I've been trying to work out this problem for hours and I'm getting nowhere.

 

I have a CSV file with a series of columns (30+) as the field names. Each field has values in it, where it maybe duplicates or not.

 

Eg - This is a cut down version

For each field, I want to list all the unique values and the record counts for each one, for each field.

 

Basically I'm trying the get a summary of whats in each field and the counts that go with each unique record per field

 

This is what I'm trying to get

I'm hoping someone could help me.

 

Many Thanks

Hi @Paddydd I would use a Transpose tool to get all my columns headers into the Name column and all the data into the Value column when I use the Transpose tool. Then use a summarise to group the name and value columns and count the values and then I could then use a crosstab after to pivot your data. You might need to use a formula tool to rename fields and some addtional logice to get the data into your format you specify before the crosstab tool.

Hi @Paddydd I mocked up an approach on how to tackle this approach using the methodology I mentioned.
