Dynamic AND list

Simple enough in spite that I personally dislike such non-star-schema model.
smpa01, thank you for the quick reply. That article you wrote looks really interesting. However I am not interested in generating evey possible combination just because they exist. The Product_IDs have their properties and I'm only interested in identifying Product_ID that have a specific combination of these propeties. I make this list of products that are interesting to me.
If we take your example of the list, it is made up of powerBI, powerQuery, DAX (the dimensions). Now imagine that all those keywords identify the software called Power BI (the product). Imagine additional dimenions such as: dataLoadingScript, setAnalysis, etc. Those would identify another product called Qlik Sense. Imagine also that there are thousands of products in this list all with their own keywords. So what I want to do is to identify a specific product which not only has one of those properties but multiple at the same time. So in my imaginary Combinations list I might be interested in identifying software that meets the following combination: powerQuery and DAX. That would identify Power BI and Excel but not SSAS service which is only limited to DAX.
