Splitting numbers into column
How do we split value such as 2019-01 into two different columns ie 2019 and 01?
- Hi,
You can do this by using Power Query Editor option.
Go to Query Editor - - > select the your date column - - >right click on it - - > select split column by delimiter and enter "-" in delimiter option - - >click OK.
Please give Kudos to this effort and mark it as a solution if it helps you. Hi abymat ,
As Tahreem24 's suggestion, you can split the original into two columns in Query Editor.
If you need to remain the original column, you can also create columns using DAX below.
Year=MID(Table1[Date],1,4)
Month=MID(Table1[Date],6,2)
