Splunk Search

Merging two sets of multivalue data in an order without regex

I have base search that was able to get me to this form in Splunk:

Name Value
A 1
B 2
C 3

I need to create a new key value pair that goes A = 1, B = 2, C = 3 and so forth. Is this possible without regex?

Are you trying to convert rows into columns? See this gets you what you need.

your current search giving fields Name Value
| eval temp=1 | xyseries temp Name Value

You want the mvzip function...

 | eval NameValue=mvzip(Name, value,"=")

I have tried this. The issue is that the data will appear as this:

NameValue
A = 1
B = 2
C = 3...

I can of course do a mvexpand but I will like A,B,C to be the key for me to search easily meaning I can do this:
| search A < 2 and so forth
