Hi All:

I have a table with 5 million rows that I want to partition into groups or datasets.

Is there a way to group first 500,000, then second 500,000 etc.

I used the modulo, which is a decent hack but  it groups by index number rather than consecutive groups.

 

Thanks

Robb

Hi Robb,

Have you see this tutorial on numbering grouped data in Power Query?
