Excel text to column equivalent in magic ETL
What is the equivalent of the text to columns (from Excel) function in magic ETL? I have a column with mixed values that I need dileneated based on a constant character (in this case ";").
Ex.
123456;SKUName
Need two columns
Column A Column B
123456 SKUName

Since Magic ETL is still in beta, there is not currently an easy function to simulate the "text to columns" functionality that exists in Excel. However, if you use a MySQL dataflow, you can take advantage of the "substring_index" function, which provides similar (although not exactly the same) functionality.
You can learn more about SUBSTRING_INDEX() here: http://www.w3resource.com/mysql/string-functions/mysql-substring_index-function.php

Has this functionality been developed since the original post? Either in ETL or Beast Mode? I'm looking for this solution as well.

I am also curious is this is something that is now available in ETL and if so, how to perform it?
Thanks!

Since this post has been solved with MySQL dataflow for a while, is there any updates on the Text to Column feature using ETL? (I am new to ETL, so if this has been solved in other places, please advise.)
