Hi All,

I am trying to solve this problem, When ever there is a DYP in the col4 i need to replace the corresponding value in the col5 in place of COL2 like the same way COL6, COL7
same time i need to replace col3 for corresponding value for DXP.

COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4 COL5 COL6 COL7

A MMM 3
A MMM BBB
A MMM DYP XXX YYY ZZZ
A MMM DXP GGG HHH III
A MMM
A MMM
A MMM

COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4 COL5 COL6 COL7

A XXX 3
A XXX GGG
A XXX DYP XXX YYY ZZZ
A XXX DXP GGG HHH III
A XXX
A XXX
A XXX

COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4 COL5 COL6 COL7

A YYY 3
A YYY HHH
A YYY DYP XXX YYY ZZZ
A YYY DXP GGG HHH III
A YYY

COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4 COL5 COL6 COL7

A ZZZ 3
A ZZZ III
A ZZZ DYP XXX YYY ZZZ
A ZZZ DXP GGG HHH III

I tried to pivot col5,col6 col7 if they are DYP then try to lookup with the same data. Please give me some suggestions.
Thanks for your sugestions.

First of all you have only 6 columns.
Secondly you don't have DYP at col4 in your sample data.

Based on your information, you could use file, lookup and funnel combination to solve this problem.

Its a formatted sample text.

When ever there is a DYP in col4 then i need to replace the XXX,YYY,ZZZ in COL2 (MMM). Same time i need to replace BBB with the value of GGG,HHH,III (When ever there is a DXP in col4).

Code: Select all

CLO1   COL2   COL3        COL4   COL5   COL6   COL7

A       MMM     BBB             
A       MMM                 DYP    XXX    YYY    ZZZ 
A       MMM                 DXP    GGG    HHH    III 
A       MMM                
A       MMM                
A       MMM
