Trying to create a filtered list from another table

I'm trying to create a column with a list of holidays (l_Holidays) for my main table (Source) using an existing Holiday table. But upon checking, it always returns an empty list (which should not be the case). Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? The holiday list returned should be the holidays for that country.

 

= Table.AddColumn(
    Source,
    "l_Holidays",
    each Table.Column(Table.SelectRows(Holiday, each Holiday[Country] = [Country]),
    "Date")
)

Hello @olimilo 

 

I created a small example to test.

Seemingly it works

Please check the attached Excel file

= Table.AddColumn(
    Source,
    "l_Holidays",
    each let mycountry=[Country] in Table.Column(Table.SelectRows(Holiday, each [Country] = mycountry),
    "Date")
)

Hi @Zubair_Muhammad ,

I tried your edit and am still getting blank lists for each row. Do you know what could be the problem here?

Thanks @Zubair_Muhammad 

I was able to make it work from my side and was able to add a couple more conditions in. Not exactly sure what went wrong though.
