Hi @MustafaP ,

Please try to create new column with below M code in Power Query pane:

= Text.From([Week SD], "en-US") & " - " & Text.From([Week ED], "en-US")

 

Please replace '[Week SD]'  and '[Week ED]'  with the actual column names of your week start date and week end date. This formula assumes your dates are already in the desired format. If not, you might need to format them first using the 'DateTime.ToText'  function with a custom format string, like so:

= DateTime.ToText([Week SD], "dd.MM.yyyy") & " - " & DateTime.ToText([Week ED], "dd.MM.yyyy")
