Find unique value in two columns

How do I check for two columns in a single table to see if they match?  I need to create a column labeled "Check" to find ID where type A maches type B.  TIA

@lpd82 , Try a new column like

 

new column =
var _id = [ID]
var _Ty = [Type]
var _1 = countx(filter(Table, [ID] = _id && [Type] <> _ty),[ID)
return
if(isblank(_1), False(), True())
