Hello,
In power query, Is it possible with over 100 rows to sort each column so that all columns are in ascending order?
For example, once I load my data it looks like this:
| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column 4 | Column 5 |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
| 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 3 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| 4 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 2 |
| 5 | 5 | 5 | 2 | 3 |
| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column 4 | Column 5 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 | 5 |
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello, it worked for me, don´t know about how good or bad the performance might be, hope it helps.
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMlTSUTICYmMgNgFiU6VYnWiwiCEKBokaQ9Uh1INETaA6IbpBsiBRUyjPFK4+NhYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Column 1" = _t, #"Column 2" = _t, #"Column 3" = _t, #"Column 4" = _t, #"Column 5" = _t]),
Custom1 = Table.ToColumns (Source),
Custom2 = List.Transform(Custom1, List.Sort),
Custom3 = Table.FromColumns(Custom2)
in
Custom3
Thank you. Worked for me too.
