Hello and thank you everyone for your late night help!

Thank you all and I hope you have a lovely weekend!

Hey,
this DAX statement creates a calculated column in your table
var whatsincolumnD = 'yourtable'[ColumnD]
return
IF(
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS('yourtable')
,ALLEXCEPT('yourtable', 'yourtable'[ColumnA])
) >1
,whatsincolumnD
,"Multiple"
)Hopefully this is what you are looking for
Regards

Hello Tom,
Thank you for taking the time to respond!
I'm not familiar with DAX at all but am wondering, should I still use this formula even though I'm not trying to calculate anything?
