Self Referencing or Table.Buffer

Hello,
I am having an issue with a comment column that I added manually in to a query (see file).

In the file, comments change cells depending on whether a column is sorted or not.
Is it necessary to use self-referencing, or is a Table.Buffer function placed in the right location sufficient to resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Hi @Mederic 

You cant solve this issue using just Table.Buffer. it need to use selfe refrencing.

Hello @Omid_Motamedise ,

Thank you for your message.

Indeed, that's what I was expecting.
Thank you for the link, but if I've looked carefully, I can't find any videos on self-referencing.
But that's okay, I'll know how to apply it.
Thank you.
Best regards.
