How to put in order column sequence in a table ?
Hi,
using UNION(table1, table2) I noticed that if columns are not on the same order ... it is a problem, bacause union mixes values of columns with the same name but in a different order.
Is there a way to change the columns' order in a table? It seems it is fixed.
Thanks a lot!

You can try SELECTCOLUMNS.
Table = UNION ( SELECTCOLUMNS ( Table1, "column1", Table1[Column1], "column2", Table1[Column2] ), SELECTCOLUMNS ( Table2, "column1", Table2[Column1], "column2", Table2[Column2] ) )

Hi Francesco
Have you played with the "Sort by Column" feature?
