    Transposing a large dataset

    Hello,

    Firstly, I couldn't figure out what I call this type of issue so apologies if this is the wrong forum category.
    Basically, I have a large amount of data in two columns and I would like to consolidate one of the columns to uniques and then have each value from the second column to be shown across.
    I tried putting the data into a pivot table and I was able to see the unique values of my first column but was unable to show all the values (from the second column) attached to that. In the past I have manually transcribed all the values attached to a specific number but it takes me a couple of hours to do it each time and I have to do it for 6 different datasets.

    For example:

    Is there a quicker way than me manually doing this? Any improvement to what I'm doing now would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    04niceck
