    Hi daicaboy 

     

    wdx223_Daniel 's solution is great with only one step. It can give you the desired result in a list. 

     

    If you have interest in dealing with it with Power Query Editor GUI, you can try the following steps.

    1. In "Data 2" query, add a custom column with #"Data 1"[Column 1]. This gives you a list of data from Data 1 query. 

    2. Expand the above custom column to new rows. 

    3. Add the second custom column to combine values of two columns with &. 

     

    Best Regards,
