So, first way I thought about was using the transpose and crosstab. Then I thought I did not need to do that and I could have used the dynamic rename straight away, so I did. The dynamic select rule I made is a calc which removes all the fields that do not contain /

First time I participate to these weekly challenges, I will try to be constant from now on. :)

 

I posted 2 solutions, really interesting and useful exercise! Thanks :)

I chose to utilize the union tool's Auto Config by Name & Set Specific Out Order options to tee up my favorite Dynamic Rename method.  Enjoyed this one!
