    Hi @RaviSheth 

     

    Could you check your formula? It seems the left and right operand are not the same type, you cannot use & with Text and Table

    Hello Steve,
     
    thank you for your quick response.
     
    I want to Make change in Following sentence 
     
    In Highlighted Place I want to use Function Which uses date data type.
     
    Source = Csv.Document(Web.Contents("https://www.nseindia.com/api/historical/cm/equity?symbol="&Symbol()&"&series=[%22EQ%22]&from=14-12-2019&to=14-06-2020&csv=true"
     
    following are the way I have created this two function 
     
    1.I have created two table named FromDate & ToDate with date data type and formatted in exactly the way highlighted text are.
     
    2. Turned it into a Function through advance editor
     
    Now ToDate use TODAY() function of excel to extract todays date & FromDate gets data by (Duration in Day - ToDate)
     
    so how would I use this two Function in above sentence to get exact data.
     
    Source = Csv.Document(Web.Contents("https://www.nseindia.com/api/historical/cm/equity?symbol="&Symbol()&"&series=[%22EQ%22]&from="&FromDate()&"&to="&ToDate()&"&csv=true"
     
    this is what I have tried but retuned Expression error as You have mentioned we can't use & in Text and date.
    I have also tried without & and without ""this also. but it didn't get desired results. i have tried everything on net and books but not able to get the answers.
     
    please help.
     
    thanks
