I am not so familiar with M lang, and am straggling to solve the following problem in Power Query:
I have the table
TABLE1
| Date | Attribute | Value |
| 2023-02-01 | AA | A1 |
| 2023-02-01 | AA | A2 |
| 2023-02-01 | BB | B1 |
| 2023-02-02 | AA | A3 |
| 2023-02-03 | BB | B2 |
| 2023-02-03 | BB | B3 |
| 2023-02-04 | CC | C1 |
| 2023-02-06 | AA | A4 |
I need to combine (with ";" as separator) values in cells indicated above in italic so the only one row exist for every Date/Attribute combination.
In other words, the desired table should looks like this:
| Date | Attribute | Value |
| 2023-02-01 | AA | A1; A2 |
| 2023-02-01 | BB | B1 |
| 2023-02-02 | AA | A3 |
| 2023-02-03 | BB | B2; B3 |
| 2023-02-04 | CC | C1 |
| 2023-02-06 | AA | A4 |
Please help!

Hi,
You have to group by
then add a custom column
Table.ToList( Table.RemoveColumns([Count],{"Date", "Attribute"}))
then extract values
select your delimiter
and remove column count

Thank you very much, @serpiva64 !!!
It turns much easier then I've tried to code with nested M functions.
Thanks once again for very helpful reply.
