Thanks for the tip.

I gave it a try, and got something really basic to work. It took me several hours (part of it was my fault, part of it was the documentation and its defaults that expect the data in a particular format, and the error messages that weren't very helpful).

It's a complex tool, and it does a lot, but not what I need.

There are no silver bullets here. It is always alot of work.

I agree. I've already written 1,000s of lines of code for this. I was trying to a) see if the problem had already been solved, b) see if it was worthwhile for me to continue trying to solve it.

The MS Power Query / BI tools come really close, but not quite.

As I like to say, they do the first 80%, but it's that last 80% that you still need :)
