    Take a table and convert to columns

    Looking to take a table and combine the column header and row header for each value into one column, and the respective data in another column.

    A B C D
    X 1 3 5 4
    Y 5 3 0 2
    Z 3 2 5 8

    AX 1
    AY 5
    AZ 3
    BX 3
    BY 3
    BZ 2
    CX 5
    CY 0
    CZ 5
    DX 4
    DY 2
    DZ 8

    Thanks in advance,
    Barlow

    Re: Take a table and convert to columns

    This post (http://www.excelforum.com/excel-char...ml#post4464672 ) describes how to use the unpivot tool in Power Query to do something very similar to what you want. After the unpivot, it would be easy enough to add a =A1&B1 formula to a helper column to combine the two letters into a single string.

    Would that work for you?
