Hello
I have data where the hours are numbered 1-24 and stored as whole numbers
I would like to convert these to actual times s0 00:00, 01:00, 02:00 etc and then add them to my date column to create a datetime.
I;ve tried used #duration and subtracting -1 from Hour but I get 00:00 as the time for every hour, regardless of which one it was originally.
Where am I going wrong?

Without your code it is hard to say where you went wrong.
This is working code:
let Source = Table.FromColumns({{1..24},List.Dates(#date(2017,6,9),24,#duration(1,0,0,0))},type table[hours = Int64.Type, date = date]), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "time", each #time(0,0,0)+#duration(0,[hours]-1,0,0)), #"Inserted Merged Date and Time" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "datetime", each [date] & [time], type datetime) in #"Inserted Merged Date and Time"
