Distinctcount when using the Search function

Hi Chris2016 

The issue is using a calculated column rather than a measure.  Counting the distinct Cars needs to be done as a measure.

# black & white cars measure = 
CALCULATE(
    DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Car]),
    'Table'[Color] IN {"black", "white"}
    )

Hi, PaulOlding,

Thanks a lot for this simple and practical solution, it works for the scenario that I've given in this post.
However, I was using the Search function because I am able to search parts of the value. E.g. I am searching for "white" in values such as: White, Ghost white, White smoke, White solid, Ash-white etc.

In the sample table I added one more row where the is a Peugeot with Ash-white color. The IN function does not pick it up, but with Search, I am able to get it. 

So what I did was take your advice on creating a measure (on top of the calculated column I previously specified) and it gives me the distinctcount of cars that match the specified search criteria:

NewMeasure = CALCULATE([# Cars], 'Table'[# black & white cars]=1)

Thanks a lot!
