    Hi strikw,

     

    Do you want to count the "AB" values?

     

    You should use something like:

     

    Measure = CALCULATE(COUNT(Table1[Column1]), Table1[Column1] ="AB" )

    Regards,

    MFelix

    Hello,

     

    In this case I do not want to do a count, I want to take this value to create a condition.

    For example, all "ab" values will return me blank.

     

    Have a great day.Att, Paulo Dantas.

      Do you want to do it at a column level? or compare all values from a specific range?
