Column Value in another Comma Separated Column of the same table

Hello,

 

I have setup a direct query and my table look like the below

Country Table

ID           Country Code                Countries                     Measure

X                     BE                       BE, NL, FR, LU                    TRUE

Y                     DE                       BE, NL, FR, LU                   FALSE

I want to create measure, which tells me whether the value (always one) under "Country Code" is part of the "Countries".

Any hint would be appreciated.

 

Thank you!!

Hi @Anonymous , Thanks for your query.

Here is the solution:

Check = 
VAR CountryVal = MIN( 'DataTable'[Country Code] )
VAR CheckVal = SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    CONTAINSSTRINGEXACT(MIN('DataTable'[Countries]), CountryVal), "Yes",
    "No")
RETURN
CheckVal

Measure = CONTAINSSTRING(SELECTEDVALUE([Countries]), SELECTEDVALUE([CountryCode]))

something like the above should work.
