Answer / fiero

Is the number of values in each column going to be a constant (i.e. 3 in this case)? If yes, there are couple of ways to do it.

Option 1:
Pass column 1 and 2 to an expression transformation.
Use string functions to determine the positions of commas in column 1 and store the values in individual output fields (e.g. 101 in field 1, 102 in field 2, etc). Do the same with the column 2 values.
Pass the individual o/p fields to a normalizer to transform the columns into rows.

Option 2:
Since the values are separated by comma, you can choose to write column 1 to a flat file target. Do the same with the column 2 values.
Then, use the files created from step 1 as CSV (delimited) file sources and use normalizer to transform them into rows.

Note: Normalizer will work only if the number of columns is known. If the number of columns can vary during run time, then you will have to think of something else.
