    Hi IanErler,

    It seems like you are trying to expand all text string and get the detail count of each item, right? If this is the case, you can take a look at the following link about the similar requirements:
    Occurrence of value (or) count value(text) in a column 

     

    NEW Table =
VAR _path =
    SUBSTITUTE ( CONCATENATEX ( ALL ( 'Table'[Text] ), [Text], "," ), ",", "|" )
VAR _length =
    PATHLENGTH ( _path )
VAR _pathtable =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        GENERATESERIES ( 1, _length, 1 ),
        "Text", PATHITEM ( _path, [Value] )
    )
RETURN
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        SUMMARIZE ( _pathtable, [Text] ),
        "Count", COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( _pathtable, [Text] = EARLIER ( [Text] ) ) )
    )

Thanks for posting this info.  I used the information provided to create a new table.  However is is not counting each unique occurance of each response, any ideas.  Below are screen shots to elaborate.

 

Here is a sample of my data

When I filter to the specific response of "I need more info..."  I see I have 32 rows with this response, some with additional responses.

But when I use the above Table measure, I get 11 responses for "I need more info...."

What can I do to get my table to count each unique instance.
