At the suggestion of an update pop-up, I downloaded and installed PowerQuery_2.34 (after removing PowerQuery_2.25) and several of my formerly working queries were failing. I narrowed the issue down to any in-stream numeric/date data manipulation:
- filtering of a date/time field to restrict the data pull (e.g. Table.SelectRows(MyBiz, each Date.IsInCurrentDay([SnapDate])) ) generates an processing data error message.
[Note: SnapDate comes in as date/time format (mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss), is tagged as a date field in the header, and presents me with date-related filters.] - type conversion of a date/time field to date (e.g. Table.TransformColumnTypes(Latest,{{"SnapDate", type date}}) )
[Note: values are replaced by "Error".] - Adding an calculation column (e.g. Table.AddColumn(#"Add Data Items", "AllQty", each [Billing Qty]+[Backlog Qty]) )
[Note: values are replaced by "Error".]
Each/all of these manipulations caused all subsequent operations, and of course the query, to fail - even if I tried re-creating the original query and filters from scratch. Furthermore, the data-type icons appearing at the top of the data preview columns (which start out okay), go haywire with even the simplest filter request on numeric or date fields.
I uninstalled v2.34 and re-installed v2.25 and all my workbooks and queries worked again.
Please advise if there's a bug fix for this so I can get back to the supposed benefits of the latest version.
Respectfully,
Gus
