Hello pelowski
you can surround your custom function like this
let Source = #table ( {"Facility"}, { {"This is a test"}, {"this is fantastic"}, {"Test123"}, {"13:00 am"} } ), Facility = List.Select ( Source[Facility], //your custom function goes here ( listitem )=> List.AnyTrue ( List.Transform ( {"test","1"}, //words to be searched go here ( transfrom )=> Text.Contains ( listitem, transfrom, Comparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase ) ) ) ) in FacilityCopy paste this code to the advanced editor in a new blank query to see how the solution works. If this solution fits your need, copy and past a part of it and implement it in your query.
