Count multiple text sections in a row with an or statement

Hi community, I'm new to DAX so my question may be very basic 🙂

 

I have a large data set similar to the below text. I need to count all the columns that have certain key words. 

Example, count all the rows that have the text "office" or "visio". I don't want it to double count rows, such as the first one that has both "office" and "visio". I want that to just be counted as 1.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi @kduv ,

In Power Query try adding a conditional column. See the picture below. Not sure if a non capitalized word such as "visio" might not have to be another case. Try it. See that I added to Ifs and if there were multiple values, it still gave only 1.
