Hi cristianml ,
Now I see where you wanna get to! 🙂 This one right?
Try this:
Table.ReplaceValue(#"Changed Type", each [COLUMN1], each if Text.Contains([COLUMN1], "January") then Text.Replace([Custom], "January", "01") else if Text.Contains([COLUMN1], "February") then Text.Replace([Custom], "February", "02") else if Text.Contains([COLUMN1], "March") then Text.Replace([Custom], "March", "03") else if Text.Contains([COLUMN1], "April") then Text.Replace([Custom], "April", "04") else if Text.Contains([COLUMN1], "May") then Text.Replace([Custom], "May", "05") else if Text.Contains([COLUMN1], "June") then Text.Replace([Custom], "June", "06") else if Text.Contains([COLUMN1], "July") then Text.Replace([Custom], "July", "07") else "NADA", Replacer.ReplaceText,{"COLUMN1"})Is this the solution? 🙂

Spontaneously, I could think of that you might have forgotten to change the the source of the next step. But that is just a wild guess. Do you have the possibility to upload the file or alternatively, upload the data and the Power Query M code?
thanks!
