I need to insert a new observation into the dataset I am working on.
Multiple row's from a spreadsheet have been read into the same column and I need to separate them and insert them into the dataset.
The data should Look as follows:
var1 var2 var3
NAME1 Price1 Price2
NAME2 Price3 Price4
Instead they look take on a pattern like this:
var1 var2 var3
NAME1NAME2 Price1Price3 Price2Price4
Thanks a ton in advance.
Andrew
