Seperate data sets and cross tab

Hi all, 

 

I have to deal with some very messy data from anaother system (structure therefore fixed).

Its basically many data sets together one below the other. One data set conatins of a Name (ID) and two columns with dates and respective values. 

 

What I am trying to achieve is toe cross tab each data set, so that a have the ID in the first column and the dates as headers with the respective values below. 

I attached a sample of data (input and desired output in the other tab). 

 

It is easy for me cross tab one data set. But in reality there or not just 6 (like in my attached sample) but almost 1.000, which means I would have to manually seperate all 1.000 data sets and cross tab each.

 

Does anyone have any suggestion how to to this autoimatically? :)

You'll need to use a few multi-row tools to carry the Naming and date conventions through all your data and then crosstab. I have added a solution for you! Hope it helps!
