Column Value based upon Cell (parsed)
I am using the folder data connection to bring in multiple excel workbook (specific sheet). Each one needs some basic cleanup but most importantly I need to add a column based upon the value in Row1 Column 7 of each. For instance, lets say the spreadsheets have data about the historical weather for each state. In Row 1 Column 7 there is a value of "Alabama Historical Weather Data". I need to extract Alabama and create a column with that value in it for each row. Any idea how to start this?
here you go my friend.

can you share sample data and will get back to you with solution. I got what you want but with sample data it is easy to perfom the steps :)

Im not sure how to upload the actual file but here is a screenshot. I would want to use the value in Column D Row 2, parse out the word Alabama, and create a new column with the word Alabama in it.
