Append columns of the same table

I have a table like this:

 

ProjectID | Project Manager

12345        John Doe

67890        John Doe, Jane Doe

 

 

I need to have a column of single project managers, with their correlated project ID. So I split Project manager on comma delimiter and now I have two columns Project Manager.1 and Project Manager.2. How can I append Project Manager.2 to 1, retaining the projectID, and hopefully not generating a new query to be kind to my file size. Thank you!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

When you split the [ProjectManager] column using the ", " delimiter, expand the advanced option in the split dialog and you'll see you can split the values to new rows, instead of columns:
