QlikView Create dynamic field

Morning

Can anyone offer off any assistance with this issue please. I have a spreadsheet that looks a bit like this:

CodeNumber
B819RGSDESC4
B819TGDESC3
B819TGMDESC3

I am trying to find a way to dynamically create the Code field, to copy the Code field, with the number in the Number column.

Hope that makes sense, would basically create two tables that looks like this:

NewHeaderCode
B819RGSDESC1B819RGSDESC
B819RGSDESC2B819RGSDESC
B819RGSDESC3B819RGSDESC
B819RGSDESC4B819RGSDESC
B819TGDESC1B819TGDESC
B819TGDESC2B819TGDESC
B819TGDESC3B819TGDESC
B819TGMDESC1B819TGMDESC
B819TGMDESC2B819TGMDESC
B819TGMDESC3B819TGMDESC

Thanks everyone

Try something like this:

Load Code as NewHeader, iterno() as IterNo, rowno() as RowNo, recno() as RecNo From YourExcel

while iterno() <= Number;

Try like:

Load
      Code,
     Code&IterNo() as NewHeader

While IterNo()<=Number;

LOAD Code,
    Number
FROM
[https://community.qlik.com/thread/185412]
(html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @1) where not isnull(Code);
