Post PartisanHow can I return a result for each value in a string?
Somewhat new to this, so I may not be using the correct terms. I have data like shown in Column 1 and I need to be able to show a table that would be the Return Column. So basically for the row with Marketing Finance, I need a new column that will show me a row for Marketing and a row for Finance.
Is this possible?
Hi ERing ,
According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.
(1) My test data is the same as yours.
(2) Click "transform data" to enter the power query editor -> split the column ->choose all columns -> Unpivot columns->Remove redundant columns.

You have 3 input rows and 4 output rows. Not sure what input goes with what output. Can you put the data side by side? Is the output supposed to be in the same table as the input?

I still don't understand how the input is supposed to translate to the output. 3 rows in, 4 rows out. Can you sketch it out in Excel, maybe, and post a screenshot?
