PQ - Extracting a number that is a percentage from text
(question from the web)
Quote:
I am new to Excel Power Query & love it! Question: does anyone know the formula to use to be able to make a separate column from the example below?
Dewalt Drill Yellow and Black 2.0% hardware store.
Question: How would I create a new column that only has the 2.0% from this text?
| src |
|
src |
percents |
| Dewalt Drill Yellow and Black 2.0% hardware store. |
|
Dewalt Drill Yellow and Black 2.0% hardware store. |
2.0% |
| Kobalt Drill Blue 52.3% |
|
Kobalt Drill Blue 52.3% |
52.3% |
| Hitachi Drill Green 6.9% |
|
Hitachi Drill Green 6.9% |
6.9% |
Code:
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
TS = Table.AddColumn(Source, "percents", each Number.FromText(Text.Select([src], {"0".."9"}))/1000)
in
TS
after load query table to the sheet change column percents to Percentage and increase decimal about one place
