This video almost made me cry. This is going to be a massive time saver.

I watched this video 5 years ago and today it helped me with a task. These videos never lose their relevance. Thank you Mynda

Incredible! I've been training PowerPivot, PowerQuery, PivotTables for a very long time and didn't know there were such amazing tools to fix these data issues! Wow! Thank you so much!

this just blew my mind. I've solved so many of these problems by manually copy and pasting data over the years! 🤯

Dear Mynda, You must be awarded the Accounting Data Cleaning Nobel Prize for this video at the very least! Thanks! :-)

Thanks for another extremely informative and practical Excel mastery video. I started teaching myself Power Query only a few months ago, after over 27 years as an Excel developer. I can honestly say that there's no turning back. Power Query will forever change how I interact with my favorite spreadsheet program. Thank you for explaining each of these common scenarios in concise and clear terms. Everything makes sense as you presented it. I think for me, the main challenge is to develop the insight and intuition to know which Power Query menu options to use and in what sequence. It is not always immediately obvious to me when to pivot/unpivot/transpose - sometimes repeatedly - to rearrange the data into a final tabular format ready for analysis. I've done dozens of Power Query exercises on datasets just like the ones you covered in the lecture. I guess I will get better at it with continued practice and patience. Sometimes I end up writing complex but effective custom reusable M Code functions to arrive at the desired result, only to find out later that it could have been accomplished strictly through the UI! 🙂 Thank you!

This was the biggest amounts of "AHA's" I've said in ages! Amazing tutorial!

Brilliant and well presented. Thank you, Mynda.

WHAT A GREAT YOU ARE ALSO PROVIDING EXAMPLE WORKBOOK.

grateful Mynda for these amazing excel tips. you are kind

Two thumbs up from me. I've been working with Excel since the start, and did in fact have to hand massage lots of data sets manually or with the complex formulae you mention. If Power Query had been available then I would have saved months of work.

Madam, you are an excellent teacher!

Wow - the download file is awesome! Best I have ever seen / just went through all the examples with 100% success rate!

Thank you Mynda! The second example was exactly what I was looking for. Works perferctly! Cheers!

This was excellent! I always learn SO MUCH from you so THANK YOU again!

Excellent video on Unpivot! Thank you for sharing the video!!

Thank you a lot. This is going to speed up my work for sure. I really didn't know there was such an option like unpivot! My jaws literally dropped!

Excellent content and teaching!! Congratulations and thank you very much for sharing this knowledge.

The best and easy to understand video on this topic! thank you so much

Thanks a lot Mynda! This has helped me a lot. 🎉

The way you present is awesome thanks of lots 😊

Greatest video ever not even gonna lie , this will save me hours 😂😂😂

Thanks for this... I was stuck for about a month in trying to solve the reapeted rows thing. your solution is AWESOME!

The best tutor I have seen

I wish I found thıs video before I spent 2 weeks in my budget tables. :) thank you for sharing knowledge

I LOVE these videos!! Thank you so much

These are perfect examples to solve many of the every day's issues when managing data models!!! Thank you Mynda!

Absolutely no expression....on my face. Well explained such a great video and contribution to the world of excel users.

Mynda, thank you for this video! You've changed my life. Over this weekend, I had to pull data from over 400 bi-weekly print-formatted timecards made in excel. They each had 2 non-formatted tables of weeks, and separate rows for each department worked in (thankfully, column & row numbers were consistent for all of them). Using a combination of your pivot scenarios plus your "multiple files containing multiple sheets" video, I was able to get the data from ALL of the timecards in tabular format (one row per dept-date-hours) in just about 8 hours' work! And I can just refresh the query as new timecards are added! Not to mention all the error-catching utility. Thank you!!!

Thank you for this! I'm literally screaming with joy over being able to get the nested columns done.

Thank you, these are great tips! You explain this so well. 🤔

THIS IS SO HELPFUL!!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for putting these together. Love your videos, they are simple and straight forward

this video really help. I work with Excel everyday and am slowly transitioning to power query to make things more automatic. thank you !!

You are awesome, thank you. The repeating data issue has been driving me mad for weeks. I love the fill up method idk why I never thought of it as I’ve been using fill down.

Brilliant! The more of your videos I watched the more impressed I am with Power Query's capabilities, to say nothing of the easy-to-follow and effective teaching methods you employ. Great work, and thank you! I am making a mental note of the work I can save, having previously used a witches' brew of clunky formulae to harvest data that I have to re-familiarize with each time I do the occasional work. Pity I can only upvote you once on this.

Thank you! It's an amazing, constructive with a good pace video! It helps to solve my work tasks perfectly.
