DAX syntax error
Hi, I'm new to Power BI. It's a bit annoying that sometimes I entered a DAX formula which seemed to work at the beginning. When I reopen the file some time later, I got an error message.
Do I need to adjust my computer time set up to make the function work?

You can not use Calender () in a column, Calendar() is a table expression that returns a table with a single data column. You can use your formula to create a New Table as the calender and then relate it with the Date column in the original table.https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/calendar-function-dax

Anonymous what happens if you press enter, do you have to change anything. I noticed sometimes you get those red lines in dax editor even your expression is correct.
