How to union two date columns into one
- 3 years ago
Hi,
starting from this
insert a step after
and modify your step this way
=Table.ToColumns( #"Changed Type")
retransform to table
and expand to new rows
then remove duplicates
change type to date
and sort ascending

Hi -
Here is a simple solution using M-code:
This assumes you have a table represented by a query called "Dates", it has 2 columns - Date1 and Date2:
let
Col1 = Dates[Date1], // Creates a column object from Date1 of the table Dates
Col2 = Dates[Date2], // Creates a column object from Date2 of the table Dates
NewTable1 = Table.FromColumns({Col1}), // Creates a new table made up only of column 1
NewTable2 = Table.FromColumns({Col2}), // Creates a new table made up only of column 2
NewTable3 = Table.Combine({NewTable1,NewTable2}) // Uses the Table.Combine function - merges the 2 tablesin
NewTable3 // Returns the new tableHope this helps!

Both solutions worked. Thanks both 🙂
