splitting a column with answers from multiplechoice question

Hi, Nelleke-NL
Thanks for your quick response!
According to your screenshot, you split the column to many columns. For your need , i think teh besy way is not like this.
This is my test data:
(1)We do not split to more columns just one , we can click "Custom Column" and enter:
(2)Then we can remove the [Type] column:
(3)Then we can "expand to new rows":
(4)Then we can apply the data to the Power Bi Desktop, then we can put the field on the visual and we can meet your need:
Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!
Best Regards,
Aniya Zhang

Hi,
In the Query Editor, right click on the column and select Split Column > By delimiter > Semi colon. Expand Advanced and select Rows. Click on OK.
Hope this helps.
