if(rowno()=1, Area, if(isnull(Area), peek(Area), Area)) as Area,
if(rowno()=1, Topic, if(isnull(Topic), peek(Topic), Topic)) as Topic,
if(rowno()=1, Subtopic, if(isnull(Subtopic), peek(Subtopic), Subtopic)) as Subtopic,
if(rowno()=1, "Owning Team", if(isnull("Owning Team"), peek("Owning Team"), "Owning Team")) as "Owning Team",
if(rowno()=1, "Task Team", if(isnull("Task Team"), peek("Task Team"), "Task Team")) as "Task Team",
if(rowno()=1, COMMENTS, if(isnull(COMMENTS), peek(COMMENTS), COMMENTS)) as COMMENTS,
"1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6",

Hi Nitin,

Thanks for reply, and i was able to load data.

But iam facing an another issue, when i create pivot table data is not reflecting properly,  I mean to say.

Under ABC (Area) there should be XYZ(Subtopic) and Lag(Subtopic).

and when we expand XYZ , then A,B,C,D should come.

So, any helping with your suggestion

Thanks. 🙂

Thank You so much for your reply.

It worked. Now the data is coming correctly.

If possible , will i get any explanation that  why u took rowno() and the conditions you took.

Thanks once again 🙂

sure! sorry, should i did that before :

if(rowno()=1, Area, if(isnull(Area), peek(Area), Area)) as Area

if is the first record, put the value of 'Area' in the same record, but, if 'Area' field value is null, take the previous calculated value for 'Area' record, and if is not any of the prior two 'if', then keeps the value for the current record.

I hope I was clear.
