Hi,
I have a question with regards to converting rows to columns and wanted to see if there are any readily available solution in data manager or if anyone has designed any solution in DM.
Below is the example of what I'm trying to accomplish.
Source :
Key ID Value
A 1 10
A 2 20
A 3 30
A 4 40
B 1 50
B 2 60
Target :
Key Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4
A 10 20 30 40
B 50 60
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks

Yup. The old Reverse Pivoting technique. Hans Peeters wrote an article about this a long (long) time ago. The article used techniques we used to teach in the PowerHouse courses decades ago. When I taught Data Manager classes I used to hand out copies of this document when we covered the pivoting module - people would ask about it on a regular basis so I decided to pre-empt the question :) I haven't updated it since Data Manager 8, but the techniques still work as-is in 10.
You can find the document here (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6m-USVf1p1nclZLVjNRQWFRSS1QX2c2TlFBZjZwUQ/edit?usp=sharing).
Cheers!

Thanks Much MF,
This is great. I just tried the second solution as I needed a very quick one and it works great. I will try the first solution too.
Thanks
