Transform table in script

Hi everyone!

I have a table with the following structure:

table1

NumberNameText
1A-nameA1
1B-nameB1
1C-nameC1
2A-nameA2
2B-nameB2
2C-nameC2
3A-nameA3
3B-nameB3
3C-nameC3

Based on table1 I want to get the following table:

NumberA-nameB-nameC-name
1A1B1C1
2A2B2C2
3A3B3C3

My script:

table2:

Load Number,

if(Name = 'A-name', Text) as A-name,

if(Name = 'B-name', Text) as B-name,

if(Name = 'C-name', Text) as C-name

resident table1;

But unfortunately my result is following table:

table2

NumberA-nameB-nameC-name
1A1--
1-B1-
1--C1
2A2--
2-B2-
2--C2
3A3--
3-B3-
3--C3

Can anyone help me?

Hi,

If your model is not very big, you can try a generic load in the script, that will leave the data as you expect

Table:

GENERIC LOAD Number,

     Name,

     Text

FROM

C:\qcomGenericLoad.xlsx

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

You can get that in the chart, creating a new pivot table, using Number and Name as dimensions and Text or Only(Text) as expression.

Hope that helps.

Hi,

thanks for your answer.

I tried the generic load and it simplifies my script, but the result is still the same (like table2 in my example).
