#"Filtered Rows1" = Table.SelectRows(#"Unpivoted Other Columns", each Text.EndsWith([Attribute], "_JAR") or Text.Contains([Attribute], "JAR") or Text.Contains([Attribute], "jar") or Text.Contains([Attribute], "Jar")),
#"Added Conditional Column" = Table.AddColumn(#"Filtered Rows1", "Custom", each if [Value] = 1 then "Too Less" else if [Value] = 2 then "Too Less" else if [Value] = 3 then "Just About Right" else if [Value] >= 4 then "Too Strong" else null),
#"Inserted Literal" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Conditional Column", "Literal", each 1),

Hello @jennratten . Yes there is text value in the Value column, that causes this error.

Thanks for helping me out 👍

Hello - Power Query is finding a text value when it expects a number.  Based on your script, I would think that it is in the 'Value' column.  I recomend you use Table.FindText before the #"Added Conditional Column" step to locate it.  The text value causing the problem is 'Q9_1'.  

Table.FindText ( #"Filtered Rows1", "Q9_1" )
