There is no such thing as "Dynamic DAX" like there is dynamic SQL. You dont need the column TableLink, you can achieve this with the SWITCH function

 

SWITCH(
    Table[TableNumber],  
    2, SUM(Table2[Number]), 
    3, SUM(Table3[Number])
    .........
)

      Hi PascalT,

       

      Could you post your table structures with some sample/mock data, so that we can better assist on this issue? It's better to share a sample pbix file which can reproduce the issue. You can upload it to OneDrive or Dropbox and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading. :smileyhappy:

       

      Regards
