    Hi pcardno 


    You can create a Masure like.

    SELECTEDVALUE( table[hlColumn] ) & USERPRINCIPALNAME()

    Hi Mariusz ,

     

    That worked, thank you. Unfortunately, it looks like the performance of the function call when applied across a few thousand rows isn't going to work (it just hangs on more than a couple of rows in the table) but your solution did what I was asking for.

     

    Thanks again,

     

     

    Paul.
