This may be somewhat difficult to articulate, but ... I
know that I can easily create "logical looking" (i.e. left
to right) Jan - Dec, column headings in a pivot table when
the "source" data simply has a column called "month" and
another column called "hours" (see example below). But, if
the source data is layed out so that the months are
separate column headings and run left to right (Jan thru
Dec) and each has a value in it (e.g. hours), can I get
this into a pivot table format where the months are column
headings and the hours are presented in those columns?
Maybe the issue is that (as shown in the example), "hours"
aren't a data element with a heading in the first view and
they are in the second.
Here are the structures, first the one as laid out that I
can't easily get into a pivot table format as desired:
Name Proj Jan Feb Mar
John XYZ1 160 160 160
vs
Name Proj Mon Hrs
John XYZ1 Jan 160
John XYZ1 Feb 160
John XYZ1 Mar 160
