Need to select column of a Nested Table.

I have a situation where I am peforming left outer join on two tables.

I need to select one column from each table/query, the problem is the second table becomes a nested table in the first one.

I want to know if there is any other way than using Table.ExpandTableColumn(). Is there any way to directly access column of a nested table.

You may also try LOOKUPVALUE Function in DAX.
