hello 

i need to turn some rows into columns for example my data looks like this

rgarcia2_0-1589691916439.png

 

I need 

BFC05/16/20204.436913267130131.0
BFC05/16/20204.4371138   
         
         

 

 

So basically all the dates stay in one column, anything within the dates get turned into columns

Hi,

I made an attempt to solve your query. Let me know if this works for you.

 

Input:

Bennel_Wilson_0-1589706587779.png

 

Output:

Bennel_Wilson_2-1589707374007.png

 

So,

As I did not know the maximum rows of value for each date, I had input a standard 10 columns in the Text to columns Tools.(You'll see that in the attached workflow)

 

Regards

Benn

 

P.S: In case this works for you, kindly mark it as a solution.

Hi, @rgarcia2 

 

Here's how I would handle it fully automated (Columns will be auto-generated versus manually entering a parameter in Parsing Tools or manual explicit formulas in Multi-row Tool).

 

Please mark as an acceptable solution and LIKE, if this works for you.
