Credit debit

In this example you are shown how to split a single column into two separate columns and also below you are

told how to combine two tables into a single table. Here we are splitting cash amounts into credit and debit.

Table 1 shows the results without the split column and Table 2 shows what we get when the column is split into two.

Table 1
whn	description	amount
2006-11-01	Wages	50
2006-11-02	Company Store	-10
2006-11-03	Company Store	-10
2006-11-04	Company Store	-10
2006-11-05	Company Store	-10
2006-11-06	Company Store	-10

Table 2
whn	description	cshIN	cshOUT
2006-11-01	Wages	50
2006-11-02	Company Store		10
2006-11-03	Company Store		10
