How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Code:
let
    Source = Table1,
    #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(Source, "Index", 0, 1),
    AddedCustom = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Index", "Address Line 1", each #"Added Index"{[Index]+1}[Data]),
    AddedCustom2 = Table.AddColumn(AddedCustom, "Address Line 2", each #"Added Index"{[Index]+2}[Data]),
    AddedCustom3 = Table.AddColumn(AddedCustom2, "Address Line 3", each #"Added Index"{[Index]+3}[Data]),
    AddedCustom4 = Table.AddColumn(AddedCustom3, "Address Line 4", each #"Added Index"{[Index]+4}[Data]),
    AddedCustom5 = Table.AddColumn(AddedCustom4, "Address Line 5", each #"Added Index"{[Index]+5}[Data]),
    AddedCustom6 = Table.AddColumn(AddedCustom5, "Address Line 6", each #"Added Index"{[Index]+6}[Data]),
    #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(AddedCustom6,{{"Data", "Name"}}),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Renamed Columns",{"Index"}),
    #"Removed Alternate Rows" = Table.AlternateRows(#"Removed Columns",1,6,1)
