Can not replace Table with in column--- need help for project

Ra20241295_0-1645212236004.png

  i connceted to sharepoint list, tried to import along with data versions( share point version history ) so that i can see past modified data. 
when I import and kept expanding properties and required fields i came across this { " Table " } neither i can expand this nor I can replace it with something else. this is giving my count wrong.. 
for now I used calculate(count (column-name)), filter() ) -1 --- subtracted  1 to make count look fine but its not solution, i want to remove or replace that Table .....

above solution reducing the record count, 
I got soulution using  = Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "GetValue2",each if Value.Is([V.properties.field_x005f_18], type table) then null else [V.properties.field_x005f_18])  

= Table.AddColumn(#"source/before step, "column-name",each if Value.Is([V.properties.field_x005f_18], type table) then null else [V.properties.field_x005f_18])

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

When your column contains data of both table type and other types (example Text/Number), there will be no extended table button in the column.

You can use the following code to remove rows of the table type.

 

= Table.SelectRows(#"Filtered Rows", each not Value.Is(Value.FromText([Value]), type table))

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
