Hi all--
I need help on how to transpose a large set of data which contains: year, term, student id, and sports. It gets complicated because there are some students that played multiple sports each term.

Here's what the raw data looks like:
YEAR_CODE
TERM_CODE
ID NUM
SPORTS
2013-2014
20
31364
Tennis
2014-2015
20
31364
Tennis
2015-2016
20
31364
Tennis
2013-2014
10
10235
Soccer
2014-2015
10
10235
Soccer
2013-2014
20
10235
Tracks
2015-2016
10
11866
Basketball

<tbody>
</tbody>
*term 10 = fall; 20 = spring
*year = academic year

I want the format to look like this:
ID NUM
2013-14
2013-14
2014-15
2014-15
2015-16
2015-16
10
20
10
20
10
20
31364
Tennis
Tennis
Tennis
10235
Soccer
Tracks
Soccer
11866
Basketball

<tbody>
</tbody>

I tried the basic transpose method but it does not look like the one I have on the top. What kind of formula do I have to use for this?

Thanks in advance for your help!
