Hi @Anonymous,

 

Please new a calculated column with DAX formula:

Ct. Converted =
FORMAT (
    VALUE (
        IF (
            ISERROR ( VALUE ( LEFT ( Sheet2[Ct. Range], 1 ) ) ),
            BLANK (),
            IF (
                VALUE ( LEFT ( Sheet2[Ct. Range], 1 ) ) = 0,
                "0." & MID ( Sheet2[Ct. Range], 3, 5 ),
                IF (
                    VALUE ( LEFT ( Sheet2[Ct. Range], 1 ) ) > 0,
                    LEFT ( Sheet2[Ct. Range], 1 ) & "."
                        & MID ( Sheet2[Ct. Range], 3, 5 )
                )
            )
        )
    ),
    "0.0000"
)

Hi Yuliana,

 

how can I convert the output of the formula you shared into numbers instead of text?

 

Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot Yuliana.  This formula is something yo had to insert in the report right? Not in the query editor. Is it correct?
