Help with a simple Measure

Hi all,

 

I need help with [what i think is] a simple measure.

 

Basically i have a data file, and one of the columns is called EC.  An example is as below:

 

EC
2019
2019
2020
2018
Outturn
Outturn
2020
2016
2020
2019
2019
2020
2018
Outturn
Outturn
2020
2016

 

The measure I am after is to select the highest number in the column, ignoring the word 'Outturn'

 

Basically the answer should be 2020

 

Thanks for your help

Hi @timknox 

Measure = calculate(MAX('Table'[EC]),'Table'[EC]<>"Outturn")
