Well I'm more than happy to help but still not very clear what is not working and what the challenge is. may be share your pbix file with some sample data, that might help.

    I know, but I need it as a measure as I am not doing pivots or using it as a visual. It needs to be used as a field in the main Table visual, not as its own. I can use your method if I needed to do it as its own visual as you have it laid out, but not in this case.

    not sure why you stuck it that you need it as measure. anyhow just added it as a "Total Shares" measure and updated pbix.

    Thanks parry2k. I'm just going to do this a different way by just deleting the data in the document prior to Nov 1 2017 and using SumX.
