guess!!!

NewStep=Table.Combine(Table.Group(PreviousStepName,"Column1",{"n",each Table.RemoveLastN(_,each [Column1]<>"bbb")},0,(x,y)=>Byte.From(y="xxx"))[n])

Hello Daniel,

Thanks for your try.

This doesn't seem to work it erases all the value 😞

let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSkxMjMmLyUtKSgJRycnJICo1NRVEkSxXUVFBHe1KsbEA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Colonne 1" = _t]),
#"Type modifié" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Colonne 1", type text}}),
#"Colonnes renommées" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Type modifié",{{"Colonne 1", "Column1"}}),

NewStep=Table.Combine(Table.Group(#"Colonnes renommées","Column1",{"n",each Table.RemoveLastN(_,each [Column1]<>"bbb")},0,(x,y)=>Byte.From(y="xxx"))[n])
in
NewStep

NewStep= Table.TransformColumns(Source,{"Colonne 1",each let a=Table.FromList(Splitter.SplitTextByWhitespace()(_),each {_}) in Text.Combine(Table.Combine(Table.Group(a,"Column1",{"n",each Table.RemoveLastN(_,each [Column1]<>"bbb")},0,(x,y)=>Byte.From(y="xxx"))[n])[Column1],"#(lf)")})

Hello Daniel,

I tested but only the first occurrence is removed, and in the next pattern it's the end delimiter that is removed.

rather, everything after the start delimiter is removed with the second occurence.
