@NewbieJono , simple enough as every complete address consists of 4 rows,

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WckxJKUotLlbIycxLVTBUitVBEzICC4Xkl+eBGcGJloYFKZjKaKmzIL+4JDk/JVUpNhYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Address = _t]),
    Custom1 = Table.FromRows(List.Split(Source[Address],4))
in
    Custom1

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!

sorry, to make this more complaicated some address have 5 rows!

 

the postcode seem to be consitantly in captials if this is any help

Hi @NewbieJono ,
