Hi Anonymous
I'm not sure what you want the result to look like. I don't know what you mean by extract the max date and display in the same column itself ?
Do you want just a single value like this?
Here's the code that generates this from your sample data and you can download this file with the code.
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Tcq5DQAgEAPBXogJbB9vLYj+24AE4XA1u1YCg4KQdr4hzR/hUgI/qktz6S7DY9pGmJAuerIP", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t]), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Date", each Date.FromText(Text.Middle([Column1],4,4) & " " & Text.Start([Column1],2) & " " & Text.Middle([Column1],2,2), "en-US")), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom",{"Column1"}), #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Columns", let latest = List.Max(#"Removed Columns"[Date]) in each [Date] = latest) in #"Filtered Rows"Regards

Hi Anonymous ,
I think you will need to split the column into day, month and year, then combine back together with a date separator like 31/01/2020 and then convert.
