Hi Chandeep. Great date tips for Power Query! Love it when you wrap it all up in one statement. Thanks for demonstrating. Thumbs up!!

Man, what a great video, I was trying it for 30 min haha, you helped me a lot!

[@GoodlyChandeep]

Glad it helped!

[@michellebrayton3570]

I have really enjoyed your style of teaching. You are really a master of breaking it down and making it look easy. Thank you for your content. I have learned more in a day of watching your videos then I have in weeks, struggling to learn all that is possible with Power Query. Your explanation of the difference between Excel Power Query and Power BI.... was priceless.... I now know exactly what Power Query in Excel is... Power Pivot etc... Thank you. I am going to sign up for your class on the M language.

Hi Chandeep, Could you please advise how to treat null values in the date column?

[@NjemileSiwatu]

Great video! How did you get the Month from 1 digit to 2 digits? like 1 to 01 ?

[@GJD987]

Great video as always - My issue with dates is : I frequently get an issue with dates in that when the data is loaded to excel, they revert to numbers in the spreadsheet. This is even though the data type is set to date in PQ. Fixed by changing the formatting of the cells in Excel to date , but a data refresh brings back the issue, requiring re-formatting Why does this happen and how can it be fixed ?- many thanks

The same issue here. This is a crazy behavior when you process this date values in VBA. Filters created by code doesn't work. Did you find any solution in past months?

[@helmutwasser5441]

Hi Chandeep, thank you for your video but in my case, it did not help me. Could you help me with this issue. I have a data import from hundreds of CVS files, and they all look the same. The date does not come as a real date. I am getting for example in the Date Row 45371.49955 and I cannot get that converted to a Date. I checked that in excel and easily got a DateTime --> 20.03.2024 11:59:21

[@cosmee510]

[@Faisal63045]

Hi is there a formula or PQ way to change any transactions time that come between 12:00:00 AM and 7:59:59 AM To be 8:00:00 AM which is the start of working hour.

[@iugaming6732]

Hi Chandeep, I watched some of your videos and all are great. I want to ask my dax issue but it is not related to your topic. Can you tell me what's wrong why I get correct data on 8 but not on 7? Tickets for 7 days = CALCULATE(COUNTA('Tickets'[Ticket ID]) , FILTER (('Tickets', 'Last Refresh'[Date.Last Refreshed] - 'Tickets' [Created])

[@billgillaspey9036]

The final method, no doubt, looks nice since everything is done in a single step. But it does beg the question: is there a purely technical basis for calling it "better" than doing the transformation using multiple steps? I.e., Could one, perhaps, to measure the speed (or maybe there is a better metric) of "one step" code vs code in several PQ steps? just curious...

[@lalpetta7468]

Hi Sir How can we add extra day for already in date column

[@GoodlyChandeep]

You mean date + 1? If yes you can use the formula =Date.AddDays([Date] + 1)

[@MilanoBeastPL]

Hi! I have a question from example 2. How to do it in DAX? I have month (April) and year(2022), how to make from these 2 columns column date(2022-04-01)?

[@GoodlyChandeep]

Create a new column, something like this Date Column = DATEVALUE ( "1-" & Table[MonthName] & "-" & Table[Year] ) The order of concatenation - DD-MM or MM-DD will depend on your local PC settings. But this should work
