Query Editor-Replace Errors in Date column with latest date
Hello,
i have a file where in one of the columns i have dates or text value "History".
What i want to do in the query editor is to replace the "History" with latest date in the column.
What i tried was :
1. Convert the column to "Date" datatype which result with the "History" cells changing to Error
2. Replacing Errors with latest value from the column.
I looked into how filtering latest date transform to code in advanced editor and came up with below:
#"Replaced Errors" = Table.ReplaceErrorValues(#"Changed Type", let latest = List.Max(#"Changed Type"[Date when data was loaded to database]) in each {{"Date",latest}})
/
#"Replaced Errors" = Table.ReplaceErrorValues(#"Changed Type", let latest = List.Max(#"Changed Type"[Date when data was loaded to database]) in each Date.From(latest))
But they are giving error :
Can you help me with correcting it ?
Below example dataset :
Hi Anonymous ,
I would write it like so:
Table.ReplaceErrorValues(#"Changed Type", {{"Date", List.Max(Table.RemoveRowsWithErrors(#"Changed Type", {"Date"})[Date])}})
