Calculate date between 2 rows
Okay, so if you revert to your second screenshot (your initial response to me), you could select one of the pivoted columns (start or end) and then select 'Fill' from the Transform tab within the ribbon (Up or Down will depend on if you've used start or end). Then you can just deselect the NULLs from the other column and I think this should get you there.
Hi Arnaud_37,
You can use the Pivot Column functionality. If you select the Message column and go to 'Transform' in the ribbon > Pivot Column, you can Set the value as DateHeure (Don't Aggregate):
Then you can go to 'Add Column' within the ribbon to add a new custom column which will be a simple End minus Start time formula to get the duration. Hope this helps.
Hi BITomS ,
Thank you for your answer
The problem is that I always find myself having to calculate a duration according to 2 dates that are on two lines

Arnaud_37 providing all other column values, other than Message and DateHeure, are the same for the start and end rows, this should not happen (i.e. if all other columns have consistent values that relate to the same 'action', pivoting the data will consolidate everything into one row).
Your latest screenshot suggests there is (at least) one column where the row values do not match for the same action, so you need to ensure your table only contains relevant columns with consistent values per action - looking at your screenshot from your original post, I am wondering if you have removed the 'Heure' column before attempting to pivot the data? As this is different across both start and end rows, it is probably what is causing your data to not pivot correctly. Try removing this column first and see if this makes a difference.
