Hi,
How can I get this:
Column 1 | Column 2 |
A | 5 |
A | 8 |
B | 3 |
B | 4 |
C | 3 |
C | 4 |
D | 6 |
D | 1 |
Into this:
Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 |
A | 5 | 8 |
B | 3 | 4 |
C | 3 | 4 |
D | 6 | 1 |
Thank you

Hi @Anonymous
please paste the code into the advanced editor and follow the steps:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WclTSUTJVitWBsCzALCcgyxjOMgGznOFiznAxFyDLDM4yVIqNBQA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Column 1" = _t, #"Column 2" = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column 1", type text}, {"Column 2", Int64.Type}}),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"Column 1"}, {{"partition", each Table.AddIndexColumn(_, "Index", 1,1)}}),
#"Expanded partition" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "partition", {"Column 2", "Index"}, {"Column 2", "Index"}),
#"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded partition", {{"Index", type text}}, "en-GB"), List.Distinct(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded partition", {{"Index", type text}}, "en-GB")[Index]), "Index", "Column 2")
in
#"Pivoted Column"
I'm creating a nested index to determine the column number like described here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3KFZaYImEY

Hi @Anonymous
will there always just be 2 columns or will the number of rows/columns change?

Hi @ImkeF
There would be more columns in a scenario where there are more than 2 duplicates, which is fine. For example, if there are 3 G values, it's okay for there to be a fourth column that is mostly null except for row G.
