Each if clauses - Text comparisons

[Anonymous]

Unfortunately, I only have a rudimentary knowledge of PowerQuery and would need some assistance.

I would like to create a user-defined column in which text entries from another column are evaluated.

= Table.AddColumn(#"Umbenannte Spalten", "Vers_act", each if Text.Contains([BricsCAD Version], "Pro") then "Pro Version" else
each if Text.Contains([BricsCAD Version], "V19") then "Lite Version" else
each if Text.Contains([BricsCAD Version], "V20") then "Lite Version" else null)

Expected result -> column with entries: Pro Version, Pro Version, Lite Version, Lite Version....

Generated result:

Can you provide a small explanation, why the other statements aren´t recognized / a function gets returned instead of a Text /String?

Hi @Anonymous ,

I reproduced your issue.

Please remove "each" and it will be correct.
