In Power Query aligning rows/columns

I have seperated a column within power query where every second entry needed to be extracted into its own column, it is the column called Av. The problem I have is that the other columns called Week Sales and Style No. do not align together. How do I get one row within each column to to align with the correct correcsponding value, in Power Query?  

Thanks in anticipation

  • Eqa33 The PDF cleared up matters. The file contains 8 tables. The last three are inconsistent with the first 5. Some of the "header" rows have the 6xxx number combined with the [image] (see picture below)

    This is really messing up the entire process, so I took these last three tables out. The other 5 tables neatly transform into the kind of table that you need. See if you can do something about the PDF files so that these odd cells like in the picture do not occur.

     

    See attached. Just point the Source to the PDF on your own system.

    Eqa33 Can you please upload a file that includes the initial data and show how the end result should look like?

      Riny_van_Eekelen Here you are. All rows aligned in each column. Allowing me to create a pivot table where each stlyle number has a weekly sales figure and an average sales figure.

       

      Thanks for your help.
