How would I replace individual zeros with blanks but leave zeros if it was contained within say a phone number?
Want to replace 0 with nothing/blank but when I use the repalce values function in power Query Editor, where a number set includes a 0, I do not want it to remove the zero.
If I used the funtion on say 3204920938 it would change to 32492938. I would want it to stay the same in this case but only make the field blank if it was "0".
Solved! Go to Solution.
Try this Power Query step:
ReplaceText = Table.ReplaceValue(
Source,
each if [Column1] = "0" then null else "0",
each if [Column1] = "0" then [Column1] else "",
Replacer.ReplaceText,
{"Column1"}
)

Hi @Jorr13 ,
Please refer to my pbix file to see if it helps you.
= Table.ReplaceValue(Source,"0","",Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Column1"})
If I have misunderstood your meaning, please provide your pbix file without privacy information and your desired output.

In Power Query, create a custom column using this if statement. This assumes [Column1] is a text data type.
if [Column1] <> "0" then Text.Replace([Column1], "0", "") else [Column1]

Thanks @DataInsights Do you know if there is a way to do the replacement without creating a new column?
Try this Power Query step:
ReplaceText = Table.ReplaceValue(
Source,
each if [Column1] = "0" then null else "0",
each if [Column1] = "0" then [Column1] else "",
Replacer.ReplaceText,
{"Column1"}
)
