Good Afternoon Team,

I have a Power Query question, in the attached Screenshot, I want to separate Dates and Numbers, which are in Text format, unfortunately, if I try to format the numbers such as row 1 - 100054 to numbers then the rows below from row 2 shows an error and If I Change it Date format then the rest of the numbers are in error, is there are way I can separate Dates & Numbers from the same column.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks,

Regards,
Chetan

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
You could use Text.Contains to see if there is a forward slash in the text. If so, try and convert to date, otherwise to number.
