Data Types Conversion Matrix in Power Query

Posted on February 7, 2021 by wolfgang

Another useful page for my future reference – Data Types in Power Query describes the available datatypes PLUS a very, very useful Data Types conversion matrix.

Convert a decimal number to a date? yes, no, maybe, with a loss of information?

Have a look here and you know if it / and how it works!

Happy to help,
