Hi @NISH72 

You can use unicode and IF.

Then filter according to the new column values.

For example:

Column = If(UNICODE(LEFT(Table[Column],1))=100,1,0)
If the first letter equals to 100 which is 'd' then value is 1.
Then filter all 1.
 
Cheers!

Hey @NISH72 

Each character in the world has a unique code. So 'D' is different than 'd'.

You may use the filter wherever you want. Visual, Report, Page.
