Hi there, I have a problem with a column that looks like this:
Is there any way I can add a hyphen "-" after 4 characters in every row of this column? so "201108" becomes "2011-08" so it's a lot more readable and could potentially be converted into a date column?

If you need in a custom column, use following formula
= Text.Insert([Month of Year],4,"-")
If you want in column replacement, then use following statement where Source should be replaced with your previous step
Table.ReplaceValue(Source,each [Month of Year],each Text.Insert([Month of Year],4,"-"),Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Month of Year"})
