Hi,
Wondered if anybody could help. I need to add spaces between all characters in strings in a column called [Names]
i.e the string 'Simon Jones', would become 'S i m o n J o n e s'
Not sure whether I am missing a simple solution. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi @C-Duff84 ,
you could add a column like so:
Text.Combine(List.Transform(Text.ToList([Names]), (l)=> l & " "), "")
Please also check the file enclosed.

= Table.AddColumn(Source, "Spaced", each Text.Combine(Text.ToList([Name]), " "))
Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
