Hi All,
I have a column with varying lenghts of text and my objective is to sort each of the cell values in this column aphabetically
For example:
if cell contains the word "alexchen" , i want a custom column which converts this to "aceehlnx".
if cell contains the word "acdb" , i want a custom column which converts this to "abcd".
Thank you all in advance for your help

@Jason6 start blank query and in advanced editor paste following code and you will have the result.
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSsxJrUjOSM1TitWJVqqqqqpMLE4EsxNTkoGMWAA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [c = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"c", type text}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each List.Sort(Text.ToList([c]))),
#"Extracted Values" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Added Custom", {"Custom", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(_, Text.From)), type text})
in
#"Extracted Values"
