Comma formatting

[nisha_deepak]

I have a field named Flood Details which is text type contains mix  of numbers plus text value like i show below.

i want to format number values with comma separated like this example below;

if value is

2,50,000   = 250,000(change to like this)

1,00,000   = 100,000(change to like this)

1000000    = 1,000,000(change to like this).

Above column column conatin mix of type (number + text).I can't format to whole number .

How can i do this ?

Hi @nisha_deepak 

Please see this sample PBIX file for this M Code to do what you want.

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjLVMTAwUIrVATJ1TA3gHEMgC8ExAAMw2y+/RME5vyy1KDUFzIdoVVXIzcxTMETSo6sUGwsA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [all = _t]),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Custom", each try Number.ToText(Number.From([all]),"N") otherwise [all]),
    #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom.1", each try if Text.Contains([Custom],".00") then Text.Start([Custom],Text.Length([Custom])-3) else [Custom] otherwise ""),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom1",{"Custom"})
in
    #"Removed Columns"

Phil

@nisha_deepak ,

Create a column likein power query

= " " & [flood details] 

split by last occurance of space " "

and then remove/replace comma
