Hi,
I have a column of stock numbers that range from 10000000 to 80000000 however there is the odd entry that contains text. Id like to create a dax that would create a new column that only display the stock numbers and therefore ignores the text?
Screenshot below of result from current column
Thank you for your help!
To create a custom column as below.
Text.Select([Stock Number], {"0".."9"})

@Anonymous is this using power query not DAX though?
I am trying to use DAX to solve this?
It's recommended to use Power query for column creatation. IF not possible then only go for dax.
