Edit Query to a newly created table

Hi All,

 

A very newbie PowerBI user here and I have a very silly problem.

 

So I have a new table that is a copy (with selected columns) on my existing table. I want to add a new column in my new table using Edit Query, and everytime the Edit Query will open, it will redirect me to my existing/original table. I don't want to add a new column via Data View because I want to make use of the Add Column ->Extract Function.

 

Not sure if I make sense, but I will appreciate if someone can help this newbie.

Thanks!
