deleting multiple rows in power query

I thought this would be simple, just like in excel,

I wanted to delete all rows from a certain row downward.

sure I can do it in excel first, im thinking about when connected to other databases though...

"Deleting Rows from a certain row downward" = "Keeping rows down to a certain row"

 

So if you want to delete from Row 16 downward:

Table.FirstN(#"Previous Step",15)

 

From the UI, look for Home => Reduce Rows and pick an appropriate option

Or just filter out the nulls in the State column.
