Table not contains
Hello everyone, How can I get the result in the image below? I actually have a table with several columns and around 2000 rows. The problem here is that I'm looking for a word in a group of words ...

You implied you wanted to hard-code the excludes within the M-Code itself. So perhaps
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("jZBBDoIwEEWvMum6lxA9gHFjDGFRywCVOkOmJYbb2xYMxpXbn/cmL1PX6qC0uqH3/ALuIMykwRoBRyDYaqi8sSN0LECuH6Jq9KqcHY1g2bNoWFbdBeiyThyzftl1Jr8U0yTzOriIMJkJBQy1GzIZigNKoapE9YKYbrEY6hEes7NY6LSvp+w/0PGn9GmWO269OhcChIExfEJT9hOpqKevv0hGy9qmNWt7eIiLR9U0bw==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Ref = _t, Color = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Ref", type text}, {"Color", type text}}), #"Select by Criteria" = Table.SelectRows( #"Changed Type", each not List.Contains({"A","D"},[Ref],Comparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase) and not List.ContainsAny(Splitter.SplitTextByAnyDelimiter({" ",","}) ([Color]),{"pink","yellow"},Comparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase) ) in #"Select by Criteria"

criteria = List.Buffer(criteria_table[Color]),
result = Table.SelectRows(
data_table,
(w) => List.PositionOf(
criteria,
w[Color],
Occurrence.First,
(x, y) => Text.Contains(y, x, Comparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
) = -1

Hello AlienSx ,
Thank you very much for your solution,
How can we add a 2nd criteria for the [Ref] AND [Color] columns?Unless I'm mistaken, there is only one criteria [Color] in your proposal
Thank you in advance
Best regard

yes, my bad. But why AND? You eliminated [Ref = "a", Color = "white paper and black panther"]. Condition must be OR, isn't it?
