Add true or false in table if slicer is selected

I am in urgent need of help following hours of searching!

 

I have two tables:

 

Table:

TermNameResult
T1Name12
T2Name14
T3Name26
T3Name38

 

Unrelated slicer table:

Name
Name1
Name2
Name3

 

What I want to do:

  • Select a name in the slicer
  • Create a measure to add to the main table to show a true if the name is selected.

 

I have tried a few formulas, but I think they are falling over where there are multiple rows. 

 

Help would be greatly appreciated.

@Anonymous ,  Try a measure like 

 

Measure =

calculate(count(*), filter(Table, table[Name] in values(Table2[Name])))+0

Thanks for such a swift and helpful reply @amitchandak 

Will try this out it looks more elegant than the one I just found:

Measure =
VAR __T =VALUES(Slicer[Name])
RETURN
IF(__T in VALUES(Table[Name]) , TRUE(), FALSE())

@Anonymous , Try like

 

Measure =
VAR __T =VALUES(Slicer[Name])
RETURN
IF(Table[Name] in _T , TRUE(), FALSE())
