Include Value if any of the selected columns are not blank

dwel0120 — Thu, 03 Feb 2022 20:22:40 GMT

I am trying to include values in a new table from an existing table IF any one of the columns is not blank.

Here is my current query:

Selector =

SELECTCOLUMNS('GEO_ADULT',

"State",'GEO_ADULT'[STATENAME],

"City",'GEO_ADULT'[CITY],

"Latitude",'GEO_ADULT'[LAT],

"Longitude",'GEO_ADULT'[LON]

)

Hi,

Try this kind of logic:

SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER(ItemExample,not(ISBLANK(ItemExample[Column]))||not(ISBLANK(ItemExample[Item]))),

"Item",ItemExample[Item],"column",ItemExample[Column])

I hope this post helps to solve your issue and if it does consider accepting it as a solution and giving the post a thumbs up!

That didn't work...

Selector =

SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('GEO_ADULT', not(ISBLANK(GEO_ADULT[STATENAME]))||not(ISBLANK(GEO_ADULT[CITY]))||not(ISBLANK(GEO_ADULT[LAT]))||not(ISBLANK(Geo_Adult[lon]))),

"State",'GEO_ADULT'[STATENAME],

"City",'GEO_ADULT'[CITY],

"Latitude",'GEO_ADULT'[LAT],

"Longitude",'GEO_ADULT'[LON]

)

Hi dwel0120 ,

It is easier to implement in Power Query Editor.

let Source = Table.FromValue(GEO_ADULT), #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Source, {}, "Attribute", "Value"), #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Unpivoted Columns", each [Value] <> null and [Value] <> ""), #"Selected Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(Source,List.Distinct(#"Filtered Rows"[Attribute])) in #"Selected Columns"

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

Are you creating this as a blank query?

Hi dwel0120

It is possible only if you have a fixed number of columns. If this is ok with you then I'll post my solution by tomorrow. Thanks!
