Hi Team,

 

can anyone help me how can i remove some text from the column headers in M Query. 

 

Below is how my advance editor looks like as of now.

 

let
Source = Table.Combine({#"59Z]&size=10000", #"59Z]&size=10000 (2)"}),
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(Source, each not Text.Contains([Column1._index], "xyz"))
in
#"Filtered Rows"
