I am loading the data into BI from database through DB2 - ODBC connection . I can see spaces between words is getting automatically trimmed and by default it is coming as only 1 space for any data as below
Data in DB :
Data in Power BI
Any suggestions to fix this ?
Thanks
Hi:
Yes if you are in Power Query (transform data). From "HOME"
Click on the column and choose Split Column and you can add a delimiter like choosing a space.
Hi:
I didn't complete my response, sorry.
So do what I suggested. Then under TRANSFORM choose Merge Columns. Then choose Custom for delimiter.
When you put it in just hit your space bad 2X, for the double space you want to maintain.
Rename column from Merged back to the name you want. (F2 for renamimg column).
Here's a screenshot, where I added an extra space..
HI,
Thanks for your reponse, but unfortunately this will not work in my case .
As I mentioned in the sample number of spaces between is not same for each row .
HI ,
I dont want to split the column into multiple columns , I want the data to be in one column as is in database.
The above suggestion is splitting the column into multiple.
Thanks
