Pull new rows from two similar tables

I have two duplicate tables, but one of the tables has around 80 new records that I want to pull out and create a new table just for these added records.  The IDs for both of these tables are the same, so what I need is DAX to only select rows from the second table where the ID does not match the ID from the first table.  I dont know why I cant wrap my head around this one.

 

Thanks for the help

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Try using EXCEPT(), it is pretty cool!

Return value

A table that contains the rows of one table minus all the rows of another table.

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.

 Thanks for this.  This is exactly what I need.  I was going to build a LEFT OUTER JOIN and figure out how to select nulls from that, etc, but this is much simpler.  Thanks again
