Creating a Hyperlink in a table for a standard text column

Is it possible in a table to have a column of standard text from your dataset, but have that column be clickable based on a 2nd column in your dataset that is configured as a hyperlink?  Similar to <ahref="webaddress">Click Me</a> in html?

 

Thanks

    I don't see how that could work given the existing tools. For example, doing this doesn't work if you create a column and tell it that it is a web url or image url. You would need some way of flagging it as HTML and have Power View smart enough to render it as HTML.

     

    Column = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE("<a href=",[url]),">"),[text]),"</a>")
