    Hi Anonymous 

     

    It takes time to scan so many rows while using Table.SelectRows, please try Table.Group suggested by CNENFRNL edhans 

     

    you need to put the code offered by CNENFRNL after your currentLookUp = [UniqueValue] like this and paste in the custom column

    =let 
  currentLookUp = [UniqueValue] 
in
  Table.Group("LookUp", "UniqueValueCol", {"Grouped", each _}){[UniqueValue=currentLookUp]}?[Grouped]?{0}?[CategoryValue]?

Anonymous , an alternative to Table.SelectRows is Table.Group, which is, in general, a bit more efficient.

= Table.Group(#"LookUp", "UniqueValueCol", {"Grouped", each _}){[UniqueValue=currentLookUp]}?[Grouped]?{0}?[CategoryValue]?

hi CNENFRNL ,

 

Tried this one and this goes into error, and text color of "Grouped" is red in my formula bar.

 

Also the result is error, any thoughts?
