How to replace/remove a column from a virtual table?

This seems simple - but I can't find any good answers.

 

How do I remove/replace a column from a virtual table in DAX?

 

(I'm doing a cross join with the GENERATE function and would like to replace a single column).

 

Thanks in advance.

@alexbjorlig , You can use addcolumns to add new columns and selectcolumns to select the columns, I doubt or replace.
