I have two tables in excel like below and I want to compare Ā the” Numbers” column in both the tables. The Numbers column may contain numbrs/ alphabets / or some times alpha numeric characters etc. when I define this Data type in DAX I can’t put either Text or whole number because it may change in different times. Is there any solution to fix this error like below.
Number
Value
Ā 2200
100
2000-5
200
2000A
10
ABCD
20.00
Ā
Number

2000
300
6000

Error in Linked tables
There were errors trying to update one or more linked tables.Ā Use Options below to see ways to fix these problems, or OK to continue without fixing them.
If I am understanding you clearly, you can define the number column as TEXT which will save the actual value and allow you to have any type of character in that field. Ā If that does not return what you are looking for, you can try the VALUE function to see if that will work for you.
You can also use column references. For example, if you have a column that contains mixed number types, VALUE can be used to convert all values to a single numeric data type. However, if you use the VALUE function with a column that contains mixed numbers and text, the entire column is flagged with an error, because not all values in all rows can be converted to numbers.
Can you please check the attached excel file with DAX formulas in it. Ā Why I am not able to update the table data in supplier sheet. Ā The below error message is getting. ( both the table contain all text data)
