    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    We can create a new table.

    Demo = 
// 01) Create one demo table
VAR MYTable = GENERATESERIES(1, 10)
// 02) Modify the table based on certain conditions
VAR ModifiedTable =
    ADDCOLUMNS(
        MYTable,
        "UpdatedValue",
        IF([Value] <= 5, CONVERT(REPLACE( [Value],1,LEN([Value]),10),INTEGER), [Value])
    )

// 03) Return the modified table
RETURN ModifiedTable

    The variable utilizes an if function that replaces [value] with 10 if the table has [value] <= 5 and vice versa to keep the original number.

     

    If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. Thank you.

    Hey Anonymous ,

     

    please describe the expected result based on sample data. The DAX formula provided will replace the substring of length 1 of the column with 1. Here you will find a description of the function REPLACE: https://dax.guide/replace/

      Hi Tom,

      Thanks for your response. My core requirement is.
      IE:
      01) I just created a virtual table then and saved them into variable.
      02) I need to made few change like replace some value on behalf of certain condition or add some filter on columns within virtual table. It can be anything.
      03) Once it done, just simply return the modified variable


      Demo =
      // 01) Create one demo table
      VAR MYTable = GENERATESERIES(1,10) 
       
      //02)  Need to select their columns into virtual table ande replace some value within it.
      VAR Update_Table = REPLACE( MYTable[Value],1,LEN(MYTable[Value]),10)
       
      //03) return modified table
      return MYTable
