Pinned for money.
I have been looking for information and courses on Power Query and Power BI mostly here on RUclips. You are hands down the best tutor I have found and your pacing and presentation are excellent. I can’t thank you enough for the massive amount of work you put into your channel. I have learned a lot just by watching and that’s without the downloads and the following along which I will do presently.
Thanks Chandoo! This video is exactly what I needed for a tough problem I’ve been working on lately. I’ve been tying myself in knots for the last couple of weeks trying to figure out how to efficiently merge and append 10 different large spreadsheets that will update on an occasional basis. And, I was doing it all with just native Excel formulas. Let’s just say it wasn’t very pretty. Thanks for showing me how to do it the right way!
Chandoo, you won our hearts with the dedication. No click bait, no time waste. Thoroughly enjoined coding.
Thank you
Man! Even in mid-2022, There are so few People who know about Power Query. I am so blessed that I came around your video. You've not only got a Subscriber but a Fan Also. Love Your Work Chandoo Sir!
I think I follow you for more than 10 years now. I simply believe you are providing the best course on excel that we find online. It s funny and nice to see you in video while in the past you a misterious person . :-)
Thank for all these years of dedication and teaching
Wow, thank you! It is always a pleasure to meet long time fans like you. More POWER ⚡ to you.
Thank you for this! I can see how this will save me time where I've done the same transformations manually over and over! Awesome stuff!
You're so welcome!
Great video on PQ. One thing I recommend for anyone learning it, make or download some sample data sets to use and combine in it and start just playing around with it. Spend 30 mins to an hour everyday just seeing what the features do and what you can do with it. You will learn how to optimize and master PQ in no time, probably less than a couple weeks :) And once you learn it, you will love it and it will become second nature to you, don't get overwhelmed!
Thank you so much! The examples in this tutorial was very informative. I appreciate all of the work you put into this video. Cheers!
Your course content is amazing .
Thanks for providing workbook to practice.
There is no benefit of these videos when reading workbook is not uploaded. These material really help to implement the learnings side by side.
I learned a lot. Thank you!!
I am glad you found this useful. More power to you.
You put a lot of work into this training. I really appreciate your attention to detail in each section of the lesson. Great job!
Glad it was helpful!
Really appreciate your simplicity in explaining these concepts with such ease. I really wonder why so less likes. Thank you for increasing my knowledge.
This has been a very insightful session. Today, I learnt many things through this engaging video and understood quite a bit of PQ. I will definitely apply this to my work and am sure this is going to wonders for the timeless nights we spend for collating and cleaning the data. Thanks a bunch, Chandoo :) You are a TRUE GENIUS in excel domain and I always refer to your videos whenever I need any sort of help with regards to data analysis and excel dashboarding 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
One complete lesson, longer than a standard normal football game. Well done amidst these pandemic days, troublesome waters, challenging times, Dear Purna Duggirala. You ARE awesome since I first discovered you in 2008.

Thank you for this! I am an RN, not a data analyst, but this video has shown me some possibilities that will help me in knowing what to ask our IT team to create what I need to transform my departments data tracking.
All the examples and the Mind map was very useful indeed. Great work, thank you for putting all this together.
This is an awesome tutorial! Thanks a ton, Chandoo! May your tribe flourish!
My pleasure!
Amazing video. I've been wasting my time building intricate formulas in huge file when I could have been using PQ all this time. Thank you so much for this tutorial. It will save me hours of work. Keep up the good work!
Glad it helped!
Best PowerQuery youtube video I've found so far on RUclips. Very clear and thorough, reinforced by some really good examples.
Wow, thanks!
Really brilliant tutorial in explaining basics and step by step understanding of PQE. We also look forward to more of little advanced PQ. Also request you to please explain when we need to transpose data in PQ , ESPECIALLY when data contains double headers ( in some columns there are double headers and in some single headers.) . Thank you.
So useful! I have been trying to teach myself PQ for awhile now. This video answered all of my questions!
This is a brilliant and thoughtful tutorial. I respect the amount of time and effort you put into this.
Thank you Chandoo for all you've shared over the years... and still at it. You taught me that Excel is AWESOME many years ago. Now that I've entered into the "Power" realms, your knowledge is still blowing me away. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.
Many thanks S. It makes me smile every time I hear from someone who has been learning from me for a long time. I am glad you chose to be with me all this while and learn & grow in your career. Thank you :)

@@chandoo_ Thanks

This is magic for me...... Power query clear 90% doubt ......Thankyou
Amazing! Glued to the screen for the entire session.Thank you
Awesome Chandoo
I learnt many useful things .... thank you so much for helping me in path of my data analyst journey
You are welcome Swati... 😀
First of all congratulations on your Amazing channel ! I must say You are a wonderful teacher with such a clear and crisp explanation of complex concepts. Thank you very much.
You are such an amazing and effective educator. Thank you so very much for doing this!
Hey Chandoo, Thanks a lot for all your videos. It is very helpful, especially this one. I learn a lot from your videos and complete my tasks in a easier way. I have a question, can we merge 2 different workbooks in power query and perform aggregation functions like sum and count in power query? Could you please upload a video on that
Check „merge” function and add a column with equation
Well done Chandoo, quite a comprehensive video. I would also talk about renaming your steps using words familiar to you like "change null to others" so that it is easy when you come back to amend your query in future.
That is a great suggestion EW. I normally don't bother with naming them unless I am building queries for others. I also suggest using the "properties" on steps to set descriptive comments.
Really nicely presented in a very understandable way, even if you never used Power Query before. Highly recommended!!
Great Class. Thanks for all of your time and effort putting these excellent videos on line!
Sadughuru taking excel classes🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha
😂
Please show how to append,merge 2 or more Bank pdf statements using Power Query to get full year data in Excel format Table for further Pivot Table Analysis 😅

I completed this today and love your videos.
Chandon, this is a very helpful course! I really appreciate the Mind Map approach to put the Power Query architecture in perspective from the outset. Before seeing your video, I felt like I was trying to reverse engineer what Power Query is all about. I’m interested in how to capture my monthly portfolio performance reports, transforming them in a standard format and appending them to a running data set of monthly performance data. That’s my goal. Hoping to learn the right terms and techniques to make this happen.
This is thoughtful and easy to understand tutorial. I respect the amount of time and effort you put into this. Many Thanks
This is a amazing video !!! Thank you, Mr. Chandoo for the lessons...
