Power query tip (Excel merged data)

Good day All, 

 

I have something to solve today, appreciate your advises if any: 

 

1) I have excel file where first colum has links to other sources to get correct name of descritions. Result cells are merged: 

ITEM1RESULT RESULT RESULT 
DESCRIPTION 1
ITEM2RESULT RESULT RESULT 
DESCRIPTION 2

 

2) Power BI quesry will unmerge things and will it look like that 

 

ITEM1RESULT RESULT RESULT 
DESCRIPTION 1nullnullnull
ITEM2RESULT RESULT RESULT 
DESRCrIPTION 2nullnullnull

 

Since I'm useing lots of simiar structure files, I'm looking for tip how to repeat RESULT from ITEM 1 to DECCRITIPTION 1 for every line wich is originaly merged. 

 

Thanks a lot, as usual! 

Cheers

Aleks
