It worked fine, but could you illustrate why you put number 1
JeffCount = COUNTX(FILTER('Table',CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[ColumnName],"Jeff")),1)
and thank you for your quick reply
Reference to COUNTX()
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/countx-function-dax
A more robust solution is
= COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( 'Table', CONTAINSSTRING ( 'Table'[ColumnName], "Jeff" ) ) ) + 0
Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
