Thanks you Lima. That was so nice of you to have it in the form of a video. It helps a lot and is what i wanted also.

Just curious , can this also be done using DAX? If so how and which one do you prefer?

In Dax is also possible.

 

To Create New Tables Using a original table i prefer Query Editor. They insert in to the model.

 

But if you want to just show in a visual (Not Create a table) with DAX is very simple to obtain.
