Hi,
I have a problem with the data in the column, it is showned as 1/2019 , 10/2019.. etc. How can I add a "0"and it becomes 01/2019, 02/2019..etc. Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Power Query solution:
Add this as new step, replace Source with your PreviousStepName and "Column1" with your column name you want to change.
= Table.TransformColumns(Source, {{"Column1", each Text.PadStart(_, 7, "0"), type text}})
DAX solution:
Create new calculated column, change Column1 to your column name.
CorrectDate = IF(LEN([Column1]) = 6, "0" & [Column1], [Column1])
