How to convert rows to columns

Hi QV users,

i need to convert rows to columns.

RAW DATA

KEY_FIELD1KEY_FIELD2CODE_1QTY_1CODE_2QTY_2CODE_3QTY_3CODE_4QTY_4
12345678018952001      
1234567802897001992001992001992001

 

OUTPUT

KEY_FIELD1CODEQTYPROG
1234567889520011
123456788970012
123456789920013
123456789920014
123456789920015

 

So, i would like to see a single row for each codes (only the codes that are not null) and every row must have a new field called PROG (with a numerical sequences).

It's important the order of single rows. First i want the codes with the value "01" in key_fields2 and after the codes with the value "02" in key_fields2.

I've read many posts with possibile solutions (e.g. crosstable, rowno(), autonumber, etc.) but i'm a newbie so i don't know what is the right function.

Attached is a sample data file.

Please, someone can bring me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Mattia

Henric, last thing.

The values in the field "PROG" must be resetted for every key_field1.

e.g.

1) now

key field1,       key field2,      code,          prog

00000001,       01                      987               1

00000001,       02                      965               2

00000002,       01                      987               3

00000002,       02                      976               4

2) desired

key field1,       key field2,      code,          prog

00000001,       01                      987               1

00000001,       02                      965               2

00000002,       01                      987               1

00000002,       02                      976               2

How can i modify your expression?
