Count Duplicates that appear in other sources within one table

Hello,

 

I am wanting to count the duplicate ids which appear within other tables contained within my model.

So within table 1 (List 1) I want to add columns for each list I have 1-9 etc.

If so within List 1 (table) I will have a new column called list 2 which will count how many times the id within the row in list 1 appears in list 2. I will have this for each list.

All tables have a column called Id in which the id is could be shown more than once.

 

Ideally I want to do this without using a relationship between these tables, an inderect relationship is fine.

 

Thanks in advance

@jaltoft Not sure I specifically understand. You should be able to do something like:

COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table2',[table2ID] = [ID]))

Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
