Dear All,
I need to figure out how to use "Fill Down" in PQ, but based on groups.
In other words, in the attached example I need to fill down the "Capital" for each country, which is a simple task. But if a value in Capital column is missing for a given country, I need this to remain null.
I imagine that I would need to group by Country and then Fill Down Capital column within the groups. Is that even possible?
(This is not my real data, just came up with a simple example to illustrate my problem.)
Thank you,
Blanka

Indeed! Group by Country, All Rows. Then add a custom column where you type the M-code for a "fill down" referring to the custom column, now containing tables by country. See attached.
Note that I needed to use Table.Buffer in the sorting step as PQ somehow didn't 'keep' the sort order when grouping by country.
