How to display duplicate data
Thank you as always.
The attached image shows the number "8" in a red box, but how can I display the data in that row as 8 duplicates?
Please let me know.

Here's the code:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WclTSUTJRitWJVnICsozALGcgy1gpNhYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [ColA = _t, Stock = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"ColA", type text}, {"Stock", Int64.Type}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Col", each List.Repeat({[ColA]},[Stock])), //Adds a column with lists, repeating ColA based on Stock. #"Expanded Col" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Added Custom", "Col") //Expands the lists into individual rows. in #"Expanded Col"Or you can download my attachment for more details.

Please look at the attached Excel image.
The idea is that if it displays 8 as in the attached image, then 8 pieces of data will be duplicated.
If the number is 4, I would like it to display 4 duplicate pieces of data.
