Hi rsdondo
Are you importing from an excel?
If so, it could be that the error is coming from a symbol that someone entered manually in the excel. Before the step where it is converted in Power Query, sort the column from A-Z and see if you can find such symbols, if you do, just highlight the cell and replace with null.
