    Hi, 

    Try this:

     

    Table = 

    VAR _tbl = SUMMARIZE(FILTER('Table', NOT ISBLANK('Table'[Comment])), 'Table'[Person])
    RETURN

    CALCULATETABLE(
        'Table',
        'Table'[Person] IN _tbl
    )

Hi PVO3 , thank you for a clear and easy to follow solution. Much appreciated.

I tried to use the following formula hoping it would return the desired result

Table 2 = 
VAR comments = CALCULATETABLE( VALUES('Table'[Person]), 'Table'[Comment] <> "") 
VAR tbl = FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Person] = comments)
RETURN tbl

However, it resulted in this error 

<ccon>A table of multiple values was supplied where a single value was expected.</ccon>

Could you please tell me what that error meant? What's wrong with my formula?
