Hi All,
I would need some help with transposing data and for the life of me, I cannot figure it out. The dataset sample is attached. I need to transpose questions of the survey, answers, and scores (optional) into columns -> question text 'columns'+question answers 'rows' (there is also a score column but that one can be discarded).

I deleted sensitive information from the dataset, however as the data is now, for each answer you have the course user took and score per question (not per course+questions, which is as stupid as it gets, as I cannot even get an avg score per course this way).
Ideal outcome (plus the columns I omitted, email, course name, etc.):
| User | Course | Question1 | Question2 | Question3 |
| X | Y1 | answer | answer | answer |
| X | Y2 | answer | answer | answer |
| X1 | Y1 | answer | answer | answer |
Thanks a lot!

I dont understand your expected output related to your question but, you should maybe add Pivots/ Unpivots then transpose
Hi, my expected outcome is this (below) and I cannot make it work really with pivot/unpivot and transpose. No matter what combination I try, it always gives me a messed-up result. So I know what to use but not exactly how if that makes any sense
