Can anyomne simplify a Power Query M formula. As There has been multiple tries regards the same but the only method that is observed is using replace values but Col A consists of more than 100 values and it is difficult to get through each column, so need to take values from entire column and see if any value exists in Col B then replace it with ""(Blank)
= Table.TransformColumns(Source,{"Col B",each Text.Combine(Splitter.SplitTextByAnyDelimiter(Source[Col A])(_))})
