Append columns from same table

[Anonymous]

I have few columns of same table 

Table A

ColumnX1  ColumnX2  ColumnX3  ColumnY1 ColumnY2 ColumnY3

A               B              C                    D               E                F

I wanted them as :

ColumnX     A  B  C

ColumnY     D E  F

I can not create a sperate table and append it because there are so many columns and i cant create too many tables.

To achieve your requirement, you may follow steps below:

Firstly, click ColumnX1, ColumnX2, ColumnX3, ColumnY1, ColumnY2, ColumnY3-> click Transform-> Unpivot Columns.

 

Then click Split Column by number of Characters.

 

  

Finally click Attribute.2 then click Pivot Column:

 

The result is like below:

let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ColumnX1 ", type text}, {"ColumnX2 ", type text}, {"ColumnX3 ", type text}, {"ColumnY1", type text}, {"ColumnY2", type text}, {"ColumnY3", type text}}),
    #"Demoted Headers" = Table.DemoteHeaders(#"Changed Type"),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Demoted Headers",{{"Column1", type text}, {"Column2", type text}, {"Column3", type text}, {"Column4", type text}, {"Column5", type text}, {"Column6", type text}}),
    #"Transposed Table" = Table.Transpose(#"Changed Type1"),
    #"Extracted First Characters" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Transposed Table", {{"Column1", each Text.Start(_, 7), type text}}),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Extracted First Characters", {"Column1"}, {{"all", each _[Column2], type list}}),
    #"Extracted Values" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Grouped Rows", {"all", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(_, Text.From), ","), type text}),
    #"Split Column by Delimiter" = Table.SplitColumn(#"Extracted Values", "all", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(",", QuoteStyle.Csv), {"all.1", "all.2", "all.3"}),
    #"Changed Type2" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Split Column by Delimiter",{{"all.1", type text}, {"all.2", type text}, {"all.3", type text}})
in
    #"Changed Type2"
