Add custom Column, Filter List values

Hi,

 

I found many things in the forum, but i guess i can't get it. So, here I am :

1. I've got a table which contains a column called checkName. Values of this column are nullable text (names). There's only one name max.

2. I have a list of names : {John,Jack,Jean,June}

 

I want a custom column added to get all values from my list which are not contained in the checkName Column

Example below :

DatecheckNamecustomColumn
todayJohn{Jean,Jack,June}
tomorrowJack{John,Jean,June}

 

Every attempt dropped me an error 'expression error" : "We cannot apply field access to the type Text"

Any help would be welcome!

 

Thank you!
