Solved! Go to Solution.
You should unpivot your data to make this easier. In the query editor, select the first two columns, right click on them, and choose unpivot other columns. Once you load that table, you can use a measure with CONCATENATEX() to combine the values for each material in a table visual.

Thanks Pat ! I am nearly there.
The table I see now is
| Mat Desc | Mat Number | Attribute | Value |
| xxx | 123 | Sub Name | yyyyy |
| xxx | 123 | Sub Number | 3456 |
| xxx | 123 | Sub Type | Type 1 |
How do it convert this to.
| Mat Desc | Mat Number | Sub Name | Sub Number | Sub Type |
TIA.
