create multiple rows in data load

jrepucci15 — Fri, 28 Apr 2017 13:20:31 GMT

I have a data set that looks like similar to this

Request     Response

CR-1     F1,F2,F3,F4

CR-2     F5

CR-3     F6, F7

CR-4     F8 F9

CR-5     F10/F11

I want it to look like a row for each response

Request     Response

CR-1     F1

CR-1     F2

CR-1     F3

CR-1     F4

CR-2     F5

etc ...

I can handle the various delimiters and cases where the response data is not of the correct format (I hate free form entry fields!!), but I'm not sure how to expand single rows into multiple rows in the load statement.

Suggestions?

Just use SubField() for your preceding load or please tell me the output for sample set

Source:

load * inline [

Request | Response

CR-1 | F1,F2,F3,F4

CR-2 | F5

CR-3 | F6, F7

CR-4 | F8 F9

CR-5 | F10/F11

] (delimiter is '|')

;

Final:

load

Request,

//Response,

SubField(Replace(Replace(Replace(trim(Response), ' ', ','), '/', ','), ',,', ','), ',') as ResponseNew

Resident Source;

DROP Table Source;

Try this?

= Subfield(Subfield(Subfield(Trim(Response), ','),' '), '/')

OOps missed the space thing. Using Massimo's replace you can also write something like this:

= Subfield(Subfield(Subfield(Replace(Response,', ',','), ','), ' '), '/')
