How frustrating, that no one knows how the calculate function will perform in certain scenarios. I guess seeing as there are no other replies to this everyone is in agreeement with you Greg. Which is scary for me as you guys know more than just about anyone else about this language. The idea that sometimes calculate works and sometimes it doesn't and we can't clearly identify when these failures occur is terrible. I think this one flaw should be enough to drive anyone away from using DAX (with it's popular calculate methodology). I was really hoping that I was missing something sublte which would explain why some filters are or aren't being propagated through the code I wrote.
Thanks Greg_Deckler I watched your video.
