Hi,
I have the following scenario - data looks like this as exmaple below :
| ID | Query | 
| 1 | select * from emp | 
| 2 | select * from dept UNION select * from hr | 
| 3 | select * from Purchase JOIN Expense ON Purchase. key = Expense.key JOIN Money ON Expense.key1 = Money.key1 | 
required outcome:
| ID | Table | 
| 1 | emp | 
| 2 | dept | 
| 2 | hr | 
| 3 | Purchase | 
| 3 | Expense | 
| 3 | Money | 
tried with Text.BetweenDelimiters  and Table.SplitColumn , but not able to get this.
Please help.
