Values based on condition from another table

Hi Ondrej ,

You can create a separate table with words in one column and assigned value in another column. Then, you can use the Merge Queries feature to join the two tables based on the word column. After that, you can use the Replace Values feature to replace the words in the main table with their corresponding numeric values.
