Get & Transform

Copper Contributor

Hi 

Is it possible , in the Get and Transform Option to split a column by 2 or more different delimiters at the same time ?

For Example ..selecting "(", Then selecting ")", then selecting "-" ...so a column can be split be selecting 3 different delimiters at the same time ……...

I am familiar with Text to Columns however I can't work out how to do this in the Get and Transform area ….thankyou in advance for all your advice

Hi,

Yes, that's possible. First split by any one delimiter, let say comma. In formula bar second part of the formula will be like

Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(",", QuoteStyle.Csv), {"Col.1", "Col.2"}

Change inserting Any in function name and adding list of all your delimiters, like

Splitter.SplitTextByAnyDelimiter({",",";"}, QuoteStyle.Csv), {"Col.1", "Col.2", "Col.3"}
