Column non standard data format
Hello
I'm for a while now trying to find out how to approche below problem.
After importing data from external source and some transformations I recive data in specific format.
eg. 4242_A03389_5_S690QL_RevA_szt2 --> number_text_number_text_text_text
In some cases data is missing first number block --> A03389_5_S690QL_RevA_szt2
Is there a way to check if data in column have a specific format as in first example or to chceck if data begins with numbers not text?
You can do this in Power Query with a custom column.
This will return 0 if the string starts with a number and -1 if it does not.
