Substract columns with different data type and create a new column
These are two columns of two different tables, with different data types and i need to substract first column with the second and find out the time delay . While subtracting i need to consider date of the first column only . Is there any way to do this

let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("fc9LCsAgDEXRrYhjQV+M/WTmAgqdi/vfRikUEgU7vOQMXlrzQMQeKVF2p6BISq5ePngTPQwMkKLO1gxpgLSEWVgda0yM7T5e7tuElB1/b2B4Ywm/y/26rDExssxE7w8=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Date Time" = _t, #"Flight Time" = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Date Time", type datetime}, {"Flight Time", type time}}), #"Split Column by Delimiter" = Table.SplitColumn(Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Changed Type", {{"Date Time", type text}}, "en-US"), "Date Time", Splitter.SplitTextByEachDelimiter({" "}, QuoteStyle.Csv, false), {"Date Time.1", "Date Time.2"}), #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Split Column by Delimiter",{{"Date Time.1", type date}, {"Date Time.2", type time}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type1", "Custom", each [Flight Time]-[Date Time.2]), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom.1", each DateTime.From([Date Time.1]) - Duration.From([Custom])) in #"Added Custom1"If this does not work, could you please share some sample data without sensitive information and expected output.
