Hey @nataliesmiy1357 ,

 

I assume this will get you started on how to create a calculated column: Tutorial: Create calculated columns in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

 

The DAX will look something llike this:

new column name =
'tablename'[ColumnA]+'tablename'[ColumnB]+'tablename'[ColumnC]

Hopefully, this helps to tackle this challge.

 

Regards,

Tom
