I would like to create a column segmenting the contents of another column into one of two classes.  The column contents either begins with "o" or "w". What would be the best approach to create another column classifying the "o" as "site one" "w" as "site two"?

 

Thanks

    Hi,

     

    Try the following Beast Mode:

     

    CASE WHEN LEFT(your_original_Column,1)='o' THEN 'site one'

              WHEN LEFT(your_original_Column,1)='w' THEN 'site two'

    END
