    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Try to add quotation on the table name something similar to:
    'Performance_Fact'[Column]

      Hello MFelix 

       

      We just tried adding quotation on the table name but it is not working. Below is the screenshot:

       

       

      But this time, it is giving some different error message:
      The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value.

      Thanks,

        Hi Anonymous ,

         

        Not seeing the full syntax but believe that your brackets or your && is incorectly placed.

         

        Are you abble to share the expression please.
