Hi,

Would be great if someone could help me with the below request:

I have a a large database of about 200 rows. I am looking to split individual rows into additional rows without changing the preceding cells.

The below is an example:


What I have:
NameCountry SectorIndustry
KOLWEZINigeriaFinancialsMortgage
KUMASIEthiopiaMaterialsConstruction
SOKOTTONigeriaFinancialsInsurance

<tbody>
</tbody>

What I want:


NameCountrySectorIndustryPriorityAction ItemPersonDate
KOLWEZINigeriaFinancialsMortgage FinanceHighPresent to ICJH29-Apr
HighFinalize financialSC31-May
MediumPrepare dataroomCC10-May
KUMASIEthiopiaMaterialsConstructionHighPresent to ICSC29-Apr
HighFinalize financialSC31-May
MediumPrepare dataroomJH10-May
SOKOTTONigeriaFinancialsInsuranceHighPresent to ICSC29-Apr
HighFinalize financialSC31-May
MediumPrepare dataroomCC10-May

<tbody>
</tbody>




I am able to do this manually my inserting columns and merging the preceding cells, my database if however to big to repeat this exercise over and over. I require the rows to be separate as the Action Item will be exported to a different sheet and ordered by priority, and the same time referencing the came and country.

Thank you in advance.
