Hi @bhanu_gautam ,

Please try select these columns and unpivot them --> replace "_" with " " and pivot columns.

Advanced editor:

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjRU0lEyMgISxvHGQNIEiE2B2EwpNhYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column_1 = _t, Column_2 = _t, Column_3 = _t, #"Column 4" = _t, Column_5_1 = _t, Column_5_2 = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column_1", Int64.Type}, {"Column_2", Int64.Type}, {"Column_3", type text}, {"Column 4", Int64.Type}, {"Column_5_1", Int64.Type}, {"Column_5_2", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(#"Unpivoted Columns","_"," ",Replacer.ReplaceText,{"Attribute"}),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Replaced Value", List.Distinct(#"Replaced Value"[Attribute]), "Attribute", "Value")
in
    #"Pivoted Column"

Hi,
