Gold D17 10 $24
Thanks in Advance
Use Unpivot to split the columns into rows. Promote 1st row to headers
If I'm understanding it correctly you may need to split the volumes and prices, unpivot them then merge together.
Create a copy of orignal source query delete the columns for volumns. In the original query delete the prices.
Give the Columns MonthNo Names as they get turned to attributes. You can add a computed col to turn the month attribute to a date.
Select ProductName an unpivot other columns on each query
create a composite key from product and date copies of the columns then combine with a delimiter char
Use the key to merge query 2 back to the original and expand to get the price on the row.
Here is a couple of posts on unpivot
