Power query - table aggregation in text format

Hello,

 

I have merged two query and try to expand the table by agregating text. The table to expand has several columns that i want to expand into one

More practically, I have achieved to aggregate the text by column, with a delimiter

 

What i try to achieve is:

11 My first req, 3 My third req
21 My firs req, 2 My second req, ...
... 

 

so combining multiple column when aggregatin.

 

Is there a formula to achieve that, or i need first to create another table with merged cell before merging both tables.

    Hi olivort 

     

    I am not sure how you get here, so maybe you can do it before it comes to these 2 columns. From what you have now, here is one way

     

    Text.Combine( List.Transform( List.Zip({Text.Split([Column2],","),Text.Split([Column3],",")}), each Text.Combine(_, " ")),", ")
