    Hi,

    Add a new column

    if Text.StartsWith([WBS], "WBS") then [WBS] else null

     or

    if [Level]<3 then [WBS] else null

     then Fill Down

OK.

 

Sorry I just snipped a bit.  WBS covers area and discipline so I want to copy that column, remove discipline labels and fill down WBS.  And I can't, even if I do multiple steps.  Replace CIV,SMP, E&I with blank, replace blank with null then fill down.  Ideas?  I then unpivot so ultimately I'm looking at histograms over time and I can filter by area or discipline.
