Hi,
Create a list in Power Query it's easy {[col1], [col2], [col3])
But how do you create a list when you have a variable number of columns ?
In my case, my headers' name are simple, it's [1], [2], [3], ..... But I don't know if I will have 5 columns or 50.
In that case, how to you convert the values of these columns into a List ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
You may change it as follows.
Record.ToList(Record.RemoveFields(_, {"Column1", "Column2"}))
You may simply add a custom column.
Record.ToList(_)
Ok Thanks Sam,
But if want all the columns except the first column or, like in my case, exclude the first 4 columns from your List. In that case, what do you do ?
You may change it as follows.
Record.ToList(Record.RemoveFields(_, {"Column1", "Column2"}))
