Hi Team,
I have a table with a column which has comma seperated values as below.
I'm trying to add a column to show count of these delimited values. for example: below has 49 delimited values. the column should show 49 next to this column.
AL, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, DC, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI, WY |

In Power Query, try this in a custom column:
List.Count(Text.Split([State],","))

Hi,
This calculated column formula works
=LEN(Table1[Text])-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(Table1[Text],",",""))+1
Hope this helps.
