String breaking with comma separator

‎04-25-2021 09:38 AM

Hi 

 

Just wanted to save string value into 6 measures. 

String = "David, John, Ali, Simon, Felix, Andy"

 

Answer measures will be 

Person1 = David

Person2 = John

Person3 = Ali

Person4 = Simon

Person5 = Felix

Person6 = Andy

Are you absolutely sure you know what you're doing? Would you care to explain what you're really up to, please?

I am not sure what is the idea behind creating measures from string, but, you can do so using the Tabular Editor. Please refer to this snippet.
