Clean and Trim
- 5 years ago
Hello flinch
I've tried some experiments with your data, but no way that I was able to no join them. Here the code if somebody want to try.
And so you are saying that exactly this 2 rows in your final table didn't join?
let Table1 = let Source = #table ( type table [Column1 = number, Column2 = text, Column3 = text, Column4 = text, Column5 = text, Column6 = text, Column7 = text, Column8 = text], { {"1105","BP01","BALL POINT PEN (EACH)","C","STATIONERY LOCAL","","0","No"} } ), Transform = Table.TransformColumns ( Source, { { "Column2", each _, type number } } ) in Transform, Table2 = let Source = #table ( type table [Column1 = datetime, Column2 = datetime], { {"BP01","1.095.944.348"} } ) in Source, Join= Table.NestedJoin ( Table1, "Column2", Table2, "Column1", "tbl2" ) in Join

Hello flinch
how are you applying the clean and trim-functions? Could you post your m-codes..

Hi Jimmy,
I am just applying it using the menu options - selecting the column and then selceting trim and then clean. It is resulting in the following code...
= Table.TransformColumns(#"Filtered Rows",{{"fldInventoryCode", Text.Clean, type text}})
= Table.TransformColumns(#"Cleaned Text",{{"fldInventoryCode", Text.Trim, type text}})
Not sure if that helps?
