Condition to return text value
Hi George,
Have a look at Static Segmentation on DAX Patterns:

As long as your times have Data Type Time, you should be able to use this approach.

Hi GeorgeAnonymous
Just making sure - you should use the VALUES function (not the VALUE function) in that pattern.
VALUES ( Dayparts[Daypart] ) is used to return a single value from the Dayparts[Daypart] column corresponding to each row of Programmes.
(The VALUE function is used to convert text to numbers).
The Dayparts table should not be related to Programmes for Static Segmentation.
Here is a dummy pbix file illustrating how you could create a Static Segmentation calculated column using the tables in your example.

Hi Owen,
Thank you for your response.
I had tried this but the problem I'm facing is that DAX will not allow me to draw the Daypart value from the Dayparts table (when I type in the Programmes Tab
Daypart = Calculate (Value(
it doesn't give me the option to pick 'Dayparts'[Daypart], nor does Related work after Value(.
NB I have linked the two tables on Slot Start -> Slot Mid Point.
Any suggestions on how DAX can pick up the column from Dayparts?
Many thanks,
George.

Thanks a million for all your help! This did the trick.
I also had to fix the time format in the Advanced Editor to "time" rather than "datetime", which caused the two columns not to match.

Hi OwenAuger
I am in urgernt need and request your help in following scenario
I have a mapping of Cluster and LOCs and want to display LOCs in a PBI Matrix object with different KPIs for the filtered Cluster in slicer.
Cluster1 LOC1
Cluster1 LOC2
Cluster1 LOC3
Cluster1 LOC4
Cluster2 LOC1
Cluster2 LOC2
Cluster3 LOC3
Cluster3 LOC4
My requirement is if no Cluster is filtered in slicer then it should show the list of LOCs for "Cluster1" only
