Hello,

 

I have a requirement here where data looks like below

 

The table data looks like 

IDParent IDName

24B
31C
45D

 

Now i want to find the name of Parent. For example for ID 1 the Parent ID is 2. So i want to return Parent name which in this case would be B.

Please help

Make a calculated column:

 

ParentName := LOOKUPVLAUE(DataTable[Name], DataTable[ID], DataTable[Parent ID])
