Sort table strings

Hi,

I'm trying to add a text into a table visual. The text for this table should be imported from a text file, in order to give an user the possibility to enter the text without having to go in to Power BI.

Wanted result:

this should be the first string

and not this one

neither this

However, the visual sorts on the first letter of the strings, and not the order they were entered into the imported file:

and not this one

neither this

this should be the first string

When reading the tutorials, I have only found the instruction to use the "..." at the top right - but that gives me only the possibilities to export data or remove the table. (is that really correct?)

Hence, I've created a "row number" column in the .txt file for ordering the strings in the order they should appear. I've created a new column containing just this number (as "row order" column)

Then I have sorted the rows based on this column:

No       Text string                                  Row order

--         -----------                                   ------------

1          this should be the first string     1

2          and not this one                         2

3          neither this                                 3 

But this does not give the possibility to sort the table properly, as I do no want to have the order column visible in the table.

Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this? Any feedback would be highly appreciated. And feel free to provide a compelety different way to get text into a visual

Thanks in advance, Eva-Lotta
