Hi All,

 

Anyone can help me to set the data record below based on the data in cell to make it as a Header.

For example in the image above I want to set the header if data records is equal to "Debit Sample" so however the Debit Sample data place my header will always set to it.

TIA,

Hi @arjundelara 

 

Would this meet your requirement. It dynamically takes the row name after filtering nulls.

Hi @arjundelara 

 

I hope this works. This blocks and captures the data only in between
