Hi Anonymous ,
As far as I know "each not Text.Contains([A], "some1") and [B]<0" part works as a function.
As HotChilli mentioned Table.RemoveRows will use number in second part.
Table.RemoveRows(table as table, offset as number, optional count as nullable number) as table
Table.SelectRows will use function in second part. So I suggest you to use Table.SelectRows in your code, it will work.
Table.SelectRows(table as table, condition as function) as tableMy Sample:
Result is as below.
M Code:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WCs7PTTVU0lEyVIrVgfCMgDxdCNcRJqtrDJc2BnKBvFgA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [A = _t, B = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"A", type text}, {"B", Int64.Type}}), #"Remove rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each not Text.Contains([A], "some1") and [B]<0) in #"Remove rows"Best Regards,

4 years agoTable.RemoveRows takes a table and a number as parameters. The code here passes a function as the 2nd parameter.
