Hi All,
I have a table that has a list of Items - A,B,C, etc.
I also have a table that has a value matched to each item. So A = 3, B = 4, C = 2, etc.
I want to create a table of unique Letter - Value combinations, where the Letter is matched to increments of 1 up until the Value, so the rows look like this:
A1
A2
A3
B1
B2
B3
B4
C1
C1
Is this possible in PowerBI? What's the best way to create something like this without manually creating a table in Excel?

Hi,
You only need one table to solve this problem - the second one. You will have to use the following M code in Power Query
let Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Data"]}[Content], #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Items", type text}, {"Repeat till", Int64.Type}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Start from", each 1), #"Reordered Columns" = Table.ReorderColumns(#"Added Custom",{"Items", "Start from", "Repeat till"}), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Reordered Columns", "Custom", each { Number.From([Start from])..Number.From([Repeat till]) }), #"Expanded Custom" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Added Custom1", "Custom"), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Expanded Custom",{"Start from", "Repeat till"}), #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Removed Columns",{{"Custom", type text}}), #"Added Custom2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type1", "Custom.1", each [Items]&[Custom]), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Added Custom2",{{"Custom.1", "Result"}}), #"Removed Columns1" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Renamed Columns",{"Items", "Custom"}) in #"Removed Columns1"
