      Thanks you Lima. That was so nice of you to have it in the form of a video. It helps a lot and is what i wanted also.

      Just curious , can this also be done using DAX? If so how and which one do you prefer?

       

      Thanks

        In Dax is also possible.

         

        To Create New Tables Using a original table i prefer Query Editor. They insert in to the model.

         

        But if you want to just show in a visual (Not Create a table) with DAX is very simple to obtain.
