Hi I am following this string and i actually using your workflow to aid mine as a solution. What i am trying to do using the file below
ColA ColB
AB WT 0
AB WT 0
AB WT 3072
AB WT 704
AB WT 626
AB WT 634
AB WT 1924
AB WT 2472
ndufs2 Control 0
ndufs2 Control 0
ndufs2 Control 0
ndufs2 Control 0
ndufs2 Control 0
ndufs2 Control 0
ndufs2 Control 0
So column A is the text field with values at column B .
I want to create a matrix that is to convert column A as a row matrix and and it takes its values at coulmn B as another row matrix below it. Then ABWt ABWt AbWt Abwt Abwt Abwt Abwt Abwt
0 0 3072 704 626 634 1924 2472
ndufs2 control ndufs2 control ndufs2 control ndufs2 control
0 0 0 0 etc
I am actually using your workflow to depict mine , but the multi row formula tool is given me several parse errors can you kindly help with this
what are you trying to achive its not quite clear what you want to convert. You can post your desired that way it is more explicit
Hi all,
I have an additional question to what is posted here.
Regarding the following scenario, where two or more websites can belong to "Larry". I just changed the original table slightly and added one row which belongs to Larry as well. So my idea is that all rows above the name belong to the name. It can be either one, two or as many you like. Any idea how I could archieve this? I am kinda struggeling to automize it as I don´t know for the table, how many website would belong to one name, it is changing consistently.
If I use the provided solution I would receive Tim as owner of google and so on, which would be wrong.
I guess I need to change it in the multi row function but did not find a solution yet.
Hopefully somebody could help me out here.
Best Joma
