Thanks, I just found that error was not due to that Table field, but another releated one. I have got the issue resolved.

The Table column "KeyWord" was created via the following.

Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded owninguser_appointment", "KeyWords", each let CurrentText=[description] in Table.SelectRows(KeyWords,each Text.Contains(CurrentText,[Keys])))
