Hey, thanks for checking out my question. This is the first power app that I built, but I have realized I could improve it if I knew how to manipulate the collections a little better. Hence I am asking the question below:

I have a collection called "filteredSKUsCol" which is shown in the image above. 

I would like to know how to extract the column of data called "XYZ_Calibre" which are all numbers.

The data/numbers are going to be used on the items property of a dropdown.

Thanks for the help! 🙂
