combine two columns in one

 

#"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Replaced Value", {"Country"}, Table, {"Country_short"}, "Table", JoinKind.LeftOuter),

#"Expanded Table1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Table", {"Company", "Country"}, {"Table.Company", "Table.Country"})

 

 

How do I combine those two column in #'Expanded Table1'? In the end i want to have on string in one column like. Company & "(" & Country & ")"

Hi @Anonymous! You can try the following M code:

 

= Table.CombineColumns(#"Expanded Table1",{"Company", "Country"},Combiner.CombineTextByDelimiter(" - ", QuoteStyle.None),"Company - Country")

 

Please note that I used " - " as a separator for the column so change it according to your needs!

 

Hope this answer solves your problem!
