Trim all Zeros within a text string - Dax DirectQuery
Hello,
I have a text string that has multiple zeros along it. Since I have the data loaded in DirectQuery, I cannot do much in transformation tab and it most probably has to be through DAX, I am thinking of creating an IF conditions that scans each character and basically replaces the zeros into "" blanks..
Example:
016S0200N -> 16S2N
170W0220S -> 17W22S
Not sure how well it will work with DQ, but you can try to use the SUBSTITUTE function and replace "0" with "".
