Grouping of Column values

I have a column called States.

STATES

AL

GA

MI

SFO,SAN,WD,MI

MD;SAN

FL


Note:I have , and ; and space within the values.SFO,SAN,WD,MI has ',' in between where as MD;SAN has ';' in between and also

before GA there is a space.


How can I group this column values as below.SFO and SAN should fall under CAL.So,here new row called CAL gets created for SFO and SAN.


STATES

AL

GA

MI

WD

MD

FL

CAL

hi

per your example

you can use this script

/////////////replacing value for sfo and san////////////////

load if(match(STATES,'SFO','SAN')>0,'CAL',STATES) AS STATES;

/////////////creating one value from raw data/////////////

load subfield(replace(trim(STATES),';',','),',') AS STATES;

LOAD * INLINE [

    STATES

    AL

    GA

    MI

    "SFO,SAN,WD,MI"

    MD;SAN

    FL

];

Thank you.Here I am losing all  other dimensions once I reload the script.STATES is displaying exactly how I want.

load if(match(STATES,'SFO','SAN')>0,'CAL',STATES)  AS STATES;

load subfield(replace(trim(STATES),';',','),',') AS STATES;

Can I combine these 2 script something like below ?


load if(match(STATES,'SFO','SAN')>0,'CAL',STATES)   and subfield(replace(trim(STATES),';',','),',') AS STATES;
