Loop on the basis of single Excel sheet data

OK it was slightly more complicated than I initially thought. But I hope it does work now:

  • give each line a unique ID to identify them later
  • identify the ‘heads’ of the tables (“FORMNAME”) like you already did
  • use moving aggregate to give the heads unique numbers
  • bring these numbers back to the data
  • fill the intermediate (empty) cells with the head’s number
  • use a group loop on the blocks identified by the head numbers
  • extract the first line as column names
  • make sure empty columns that would just contain missing values are excluded (you could set a threshold)
  • insert the column names
  • create a new file name
  • store the new files on disk
  • be done
