Hi,
I am not sure if it is possbile in Power BI, however is there a way I can match the following:
Colunm A has : W345678-New
Colunm B has : 45635 | W345678
As the value 'W345678' exists in both colunms, I want to remove the rows from my report. All the vlaues I want to match are in the same format as above Colunm A values have -New after each value and Colunm B has a value then |.
Many thanks

Hi @craig811
You may try below measure:
Column = IF(ISERROR(FIND(LEFT([ColumnA],FIND("-",[ColumnA])-1),[ColumnB])),0,1)
Regards,
Cherie
Column = IF(FIND(LEFT([ColumnA],FIND("-",[ColumnA])-1),[ColumnB]),1,0)
Thank you,
However I get the following error:'The search Text provided to function 'FIND' could not be found in the given text' any idea how to fix it?
Make sure that the first 2 column references are the same. Also does all your data in column A have a "-" before the "new"?
Try putting a default value in if you don't find the hyphen.
Column = IF(FIND(LEFT([ColumnA],FIND("-",[ColumnA],1,"999999")-1),[ColumnB]),1,0)
Thank you for the reply,
Yes, I do have some data in ColumnA that does not have - and some rows are blank.
Hi @craig811
Could you show some data with screenshot?

Thank you for solution,
However, how do I get the if statament to look in all the rows of columnB ([Line Description) to find a matching value with colunmA:
Great thanks Cherie,
This might be a silly question, however how do I get the formula to look for the value in columnA and if it exists in column B then enter value 1?
For example:
ColumnA ColumnB
W111234-NEW TEST
71554 | W111234-NEW
So from the above the value in column A exists in column B ,but might be on a different row in column B. I would still like it to show a value of 1 in the new column.
Hope that makes sense.
