Using ALL in DAX with a text column

What I want should be fairly simple.

 

I'm filtering my report on the project column, but I want a particular table to return all projects. Because what I'm trying to achieve, I can't simply Edit Interactions, to prevent the filter from filtering the visual concerned, on account of another measure included in it, which requires the user-imputted filter option.

 

So I tried creating a measure, like this, using ALL, to disregard the filter:

 

All Projects = ALL('Work'[Project Name])
 
This didn't work. The error was:
 
"A table of multiple values was supplied where a single value was expected."
 
Somewhere I read about using ALL with CALCULATETABLE, so I tried this:
 
All Projects = CALCULATETABLE('Work',ALL('Work'[Project Name]))
This didn't work either. The error was:
 
"The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value).
 
Where am I going wrong?
