Custom Delimiter? Archive Unused Data?

I need ideas for a problems im trying to solve. I am putting together a dashboards with datafeeds from multiple sources and i am only normailzing only 13 columns from each. I would like to merge the other data from the unused columns into an archieve column, but the problem i run into is that the data is different across the different sources and the column header is needed for context. Is there a way to merge columns by a custom delimiter and use the header? Or does anyone have any other ideas?

Hi @mm12326 ,

I still have a little confused about your scenario. It seems that you want to merge the colums from different tables to be one column? 

If it is convenient, could you share some data sample which could reproduce your scenario and your desired output so that I could understand your scenario better and help further on it.
Best  Regards,

Cherry
