Hi Vmcbride1
You could add custom columns
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Vc09DoMwDAXgq0SesVTyR3sWxJDWDhWjQxXl9hiGtB0s5X2R/eYZEgwgnI20j9moZCqwDDM8lVMudIWXBv1ar3AurIUMEZlCKVPX0Y4OrUNnre94Zh/QemdDR+8w+OmGU/yaVhth0anMXVMhlJ1xe+efprNID0SM0yOGe3eW2t+VdU92o8Z/uLcGy3IA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [cate = _t, des = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"cate", type text}, {"des", type text}}), #"Added Conditional Column" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each if [cate] = "a" then 1 else null), #"Added Conditional Column1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Conditional Column", "Custom.3", each if Text.Combine({Text.Middle([des], 3, 1), Text.From("*", "en-US")}, "") = " *" then 1 else null), #"Added Conditional Column2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Conditional Column1", "Custom.2", each if Text.Combine({Text.Middle([des], 7, 1), Text.From("*", "en-US")}, "") = " *" then 1 else null), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Conditional Column2", "Custom.4", each if [Custom]=1 then if [Custom.3]=1 and [Custom.2]=1 then "Labor1" else "Parts1" else " ") in #"Added Custom1"Best Regards

ok, i am not getting ther error now but i guess the Text.Range is a little different than Mid?
In the 2nd column of my example the line RDG O21 1904030102 is actually a line of labor. So i am trying to pick up the blank space after the RDG and blank space after the O21 as none of my actual part numbers will have those two spaces if that makes sense. So i have tried 2,1 and 6,1 to get the blanks as well as 4,1 and 7,1 all i get to return is "Parts1"
