Hi,
I need advice.
I have in PowerQuery duplicate rows by ID. I sort table by Name.1 and then dalete duplicate rows by ID.
Then I see just sixth row but I need to see just first row.
Thank you
Ondřej
Solved! Go to Solution.
In the Formula Bar, try wrapping your Table.Sort step with Table.Buffer( ).

@Fidzi8 You need a Table.Buffer like this:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlTSUTI0UIrVgTCNEExjCNMIocAIocAIqiAWAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", Int64.Type}, {"Column2", Int64.Type}}),
#"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Changed Type",{{"Column2", Order.Descending}}),
Buffer = Table.Buffer(#"Sorted Rows"),
#"Removed Duplicates" = Table.Distinct(Buffer, {"Column1"})
in
#"Removed Duplicates"
