I have created this code, but the issue is that the option to 'sum' the data in the visual has gone, as it is now text-based, and it only shows the value of the first entry. Is there a way to pre-sum the data in dax, so that I can then add it to the visual? here's what I have:

@oswaldosborne , Make sure you are using measure not column
SUM(Proj_LabourBudgetWeeks[Resourced_Days]) & " - " & Maxx(Proj_LabourBudgetWeeks, RELATED(Proj_Projects[Project_NameShort])) & "... (PL:" & Maxx(Proj_LabourBudgetWeeks,RELATED(Proj_Projects[Project_Manager_FirstName])) & "_PD:" & Maxx(Proj_LabourBudgetWeeks,RELATED(Proj_Projects[Project_Director_FirstName])) &")"
absolute lifesaver, thank you so much.
