Split columns with delimited based on records from another table

Hello,

I got two tables one with the values that has delimited characters acsending numbers and the second table with the colunms names and their delimited characters, how can I match the columns names and pull only their data for each column based on the delimited and their id. Some values could have 1 to 6 different columns depending on the data. I have attached some examples below to explain it better. 

 

 

data table

idvalues
1031A12ABOVE3333
10541055Above6Subject
106116

 

reference table

idtsc-reftsc-ordersdesc
10543Score
10552Level
10561Subject
10311subject
10322level
10333scale score
10611Score

 

 

Results

idsubjectlevelscore
103A1Above333
105SubjectAbove105
106  16

 

I would like to pull any word score and get their tsc-ref to get the value data only the score position or any other fields. Does anyone has any suggestions? 

Thank you

Brian

Hi @bpatterson create relatioship between tables like on link below and after that create visual as you need (table / matrix).

Hello, 

Thank you for the information, I do have all the relationships setup and the matrix table would work but it does not break up the values into columns. How would I be able to split up the values into columns? For example: column/field value 41055Above6Subject. 

Column 4Column 5Column 6
105AboveSubject

 

Thank you again

Brian
