Filter not working in Power BI desktop
I am trying to put a filter on a column in Power BI but the filter returns the opposite of what I have filtered. 😕
I tried to trim the text but this did not help.
The project1,2, 3 are the opposite of what I put in the filter.
= Table.SelectRows(#"Replaced Value5", each ([WorkspaceName] <> "Projectname1" and [WorkspaceName] <> "Projectname2" and [WorkspaceName] <> "Projectname3"))
= Table.SelectRows(#"Replaced Value5", each ([WorkspaceName] <> "Projectname1" and [WorkspaceName] <> "Projectname2" and [WorkspaceName] <> "Projectname3"))
Im thinking the error has somehow to do with this but this is a previous step that is needed for something else:
#"Replaced Value5"

Hi MathildaP
Sorry I'm a little confused. You want to keep rows with "Projectname1", "Projectname2", "Projectname3" or remove rows with these three values?
If you want to keep these rows, try
= Table.SelectRows(#"Replaced Value5", each ([WorkspaceName] = "Projectname1" or [WorkspaceName] = "Projectname2" or [WorkspaceName] = "Projectname3"))
If you want to remove these rows, try your original codes.
