    Wbs

    I have a column where part numbers differentiate themselves via the number of leading blanks they have.
    12345
    23567
    34567
    256755
    67894
    675967

    I have found the function commands to determine the number of leading blanks.

    12345 0
    23567 1
    34567 1
    25675 2
    67894 1
    675967 2

    I would like to utilize the leading blanks column to try and create a Work Breakdown structure as follows

    PN Lead Blanks WBS
    12345 0 1.0
    23567 1 1.1
    34567 1 1.2
    25675 2 1.2.1
    67894 1 1.3
    675967 2 1.3.1

    Looking for ideas to try?

    Administrative Note:

    Welcome to the forum.

    We would very much like to help you with your query, however the thread title does not really convey what your request is about. Tell us what you are trying to do, not how you think it should be done.

    Please take a moment to amend your thread title. Make sure that the title properly explains your request. Your title should be explicit and not be generic (this includes function names used without an indication of what you are trying to achieve).

    Please see Forum Rule #1 about proper thread titles and adjust accordingly. To edit the thread title, open the original post to edit and then click on Go Advanced (bottom right) to access the area where you can edit your title.

    (Note: this change is not optional. Normally, as you are new, I'd do it for you, but I have no idea at all what WBS means, what you are trying to do or anything useful, so you will have to do it yourself ahead of any help being offered.)
