    Hi Anonymous 

    To catch that last R5 you'll need to do a case insensitive match and then transform the resulting text to Upper Case.  The line to do this when you add the custom column is

    Regards

You can add a custom column in the query editor to get your desired result with this formula

= List.First(List.Select(Text.Split([Tag Names], ";"), each Text.Contains(_,"R")))
