How to replace values using column names ?
Hello seikenbary
just use Table.Group with Text.Combine if you want to have in power query. Otherwise use the syntax by az38
let Source = #table ( {"Project","Person"}, { {"A","Art"}, {"A","Bart"}, {"B","Tim"}, {"C","Sue"}, {"D","Larry"}, {"D","Barry"}, {"D","Garry"} } ), Group = Table.Group(Source, {"Project"}, {{"TextCombine", each Text.Combine(_[Person], ", "), type text}}) in GroupCopy paste this code to the advanced editor to see how the solution works. If this solution fits your need, copy and past a part of it and implement it in your query, or I could create a custom function what makes it easier to apply if you are not used that much to power query.

Community ChampionHi seikenbary
try this DAX technique.
create a calculated table
Table =
SUMMARIZE (
ADDCOLUMNS (
'Table1';
"Combined Value"; CONCATENATEX (
FILTER (
SUMMARIZE ( 'Table1'; 'Table1'[Project]; [Person] );
[Project] = EARLIER ( 'Table1'[Project] )
);
'Table1'[Person];
", "
)
);
[Project];
[Combined Value]
)
do not hesitate to give a kudo to useful posts and mark solutions as solution
many thanks for the quick response. i don't really know yet how to apply DAX but i'm sure this will help others! i got my query working with the combine + group code from the other response.
