Hello QV Experts, I have a problem with data transformationinto expected format. My data source looks like that:

Before.JPG.jpg

And I really need it in that form:

AfterETL.JPG.jpg

I know, that I can use fill function in wizzard, but for 3 or 4 data levels? Is there possible to do it in script?

Do you have any idea, how to solve this problem?

I will be very grateful.

Hi Mukram,

thank you for fast reply.

Unfortunately, I can't attach an orginal source. So this is just sample data in .txt format.

Hi Poja,

I rather would like to know, how to fill new columns with categories from Description.

Statements from violet cells are my Category1, from blue cells are Category2 etc. so I need them in my final table.
