List.Buffer manually

I know that the list.buffer function allows you to extract data from another table, but I would like to know if it is possible to do this manually, that is, instead of introducing code.

In short, I have a table with several pieces of data, including a date column, and I wanted to extract this date column into a new query and work from the new query to create a calendar.
I tried the "add as new query" command and it works, but it copies all the steps I did in the initial table and I didn't want that to be visible.

you can extract a single column from a different source, like

 

let 

    Source = Query1[Column1]

in

   Source

 

which gives you a list.

 

Note that this has nothing to do with list buffers. That's a different feature.
