Hi,
I have a table in power query that I want to convert into a SINGLE line list so I can use it as a parameter. I want to use the parameter in an "in" clause in a SQL statement.
Here is the example table
Table
Cow
Chicken
Dog
Cat
Bird
Desired Single line list
'Cow','Chicken','Dog','Cat','Bird'
Solved! Go to Solution.

(x) => "'" & Text.Combine(x, "','") & "'"
Hi again, I think I found the menu item to convert it
Hi Ahmedx,
Thanks for the detailed instructions. I was able to follow them through. The only issue is that the result is a string, not a list. I am unable to create a parameter from the result. Do you know how to convert the string to a single-line list? All of the transformation options are grayed out for the result.
