@Anonymous after you added new custom column, why not remove the 1st column and then rename the 2nd column in following steps.

first of thank you for your answers

I have more than 150 city if I want to apply this function must enter each time the name of the city? Do you have a solution for me?

@Anonymous not sure what you mean 150 cities, if it is rows then no problem or it is 150 columns?

Hello Faiz,

You have Split Column option in the Transform tab,Then you can split by delimiter.

After that, you can remove the second column.

I hope this would be the right answer.
