Hi,
In the Power Query Editior I have a column, lets call it "column" with a date in Text-format
I would like to add a column and transform the Text to a Date (DD-MM-YYYY), but to leave emtpy when "0"
I would use this formular when all cells are filled, but it will not work with the cells containing "0":
Date =
Date.FromText(
Text.Range([column], 0, 4) &
"-" &
Text.Range([column], 4, 2) &
"-" &
Text.Range([column], 6, 2) )
How would I handle this in DAX?

Add an if condition to check.
=if [Column] = "0"
then 0
else
Date.FromText(
Text.Range([Column], 0, 4) &
"-" &
Text.Range([Column], 4, 2) &
"-" &
Text.Range([Column], 6, 2) )

Thanks,
I wanted to lease cells emtpy when "0", so I tweaked it a bit:
if [column] = "0" then ""
else
Date.FromText( Text.Range([column], 0, 4) &
"-" &
Text.Range([column], 4, 2) &
"-" &
Text.Range([column], 6, 2) )
