Hello experts,
I have a tough one for you:
I have a bunch of columns like this:
Qry1 Qry2 Qry3 Qry4 Qry5 Qry6 Qry7 Qry8 Qry9 Qry10
1 N N N N N N N N Y N
2 N N Y N N N N N N N
3 Y N N N N N N N N N
Notice the 'Y's?
Well I need to reduce this to one column using the headers where the value is 'Y'. the output should look like this:
MyNewColumn
1 Qry9
2 Qry3
3 Qry1
Basically use the column header where there is a 'Y'. I guess I need a calculation column of some sort but I haven't found anything on the net as to using headers as value.
Any help is appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
