Double Dash (--) Command

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I have tried Googling and searching through this forum, but without a success. What is the meaning of this double dash? Exclude dates from the Actuals[date] table?

Help appreciated!

Hi,

Double Dash means that code is Commented in DAX.

Hi Vignesh,

Thanks for fast reply. So basically it has no function other than a note/comment? Same as VBA then.

Hey @Anonymous ,

it is as @Anonymous mentioned, it is just a comment, without any further meaning, meaning without any relevance for the DAX code.

Here is an article that contains some more hints how shortcuts can be used inside the DAX editor inside Power BI: https://xxlbi.com/blog/dax-formula-bar-keyboard-shortcuts-in-power-bi-desktop/
