Please help me find the right way to copy the date (Wednesday, February 28, 2024 in the picture) down until the next date, and so on. Then split all sets of the top and bottom tables so can merge them.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @sa34techer,
You ask for merged tables but I thing you mean appended.
I tried to make it as dynamic as possible.
It is important that you musn't have headers promoted, so your data should be like this. If you have headers promoted, demote them first!
