Hello Everyone
I'm trying to create a custom column in power querey where if the first 9 characters of [description] is alphanumeric then "Y" else if the first 9 characters of [description] is numeric then "X" else "N/A"
can you please help. Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@ritanoori , Try something like
if Value.Is(Text.Start([description],9) Int64.Type) then "Y" else if Value.Is(Text.Start([description],9) Text) then "X" else "N/A"
Hi @ritanoori ,
You can create this custom column in power query:
Table.AddColumn(
#"Changed Type",
"Custom",
each if
Value.Is(
Value.FromText(Text.Start([description],9)),Int64.Type
)
then "X"
else if
Text.Length(
Text.Remove(
Text.Start([description],9),
{"a".."z","A".."Z"})
) = 0
then "Y"
else "N/A"
)
Attached a sample file in the below, hopes to help you.
Best Regards,

@ritanoori , Try a new column like
new column =
var _chk = left([description],9)
return
Switch(True(),
ISNUMBER(_chk), "Y"
ISTEXT(_chk) ,"X"
,"N/A")
Thanks. But I need this in power querey.
