populate table with data from another table
Hi I have two different tables one is filled with data and the other one contains just headers. I want to extract data from the one with data and fill the other table with that data. But before I do ...
Johan Karlsson You don't explain what data should go to Table 2. How would one determine which rows from Table 1 qualify, based on the headers in Table 2?
Or is it so that you want Table 2 only to show 6 out the 9 columns that are in Table 1? If so, in PQ, just remove the unwanted columns before you load the table back to Excel.
- Sorry if I was a little bit unclear but I'm aware that one of the solutions is just to remove columns in the first table. But this is just an example so I want to move the data from the columns in table 1 to their corresponding columns in table 2. As for the date columns in table 1 should go the xx_start and xx_end date columns in table 2.
Johan Karlsson So you have raw data and create the first table from it with PQ and you want a second table with only a selection of columns. Why not create another query referencing to the one that creates the first table and remove the unwanted column in that new query. Load it back to Excel as your second table.
