I want to create a new column record header 

My current input file is - 

Age2019-11-12
115$
289$

 

I want my output file to have such headers where date is added my one- 

Age2019-11-122019-11-13
115$*empty to add the input from another file
289$*empty

 

How do i automate this column creation task?

 @henrygeorge,

 

Here you go, method i used includes:

 

- generate individual dates from a range (start date & end date)

- cross tab using a dummy value and rename ('Cross Tab' forces underscores)

- append to the original dataset and allow all append

It will add a column 1 day after the max column date
