Hi,
I have a column with with a text. Some of the text is duplicate which I would like to count (I wanna see how ofter it appears)
I tried following Dax Code, but it doesnt work because it cant compare between text and integer:
AA = COUNTROWS(
FILTER( DISTINCT( TABLE[Text]);
Tabe[Text] >=2
)
)
Does someone know how I could found duplicate text rows?
best regards

Hi @yellow_days,
You can create a new column using DAX, with the number of occurrences of the texts in the column, using this formula:
Count_occurence = COUNTX ( FILTER ( Table; EARLIER ( Table[Text] ) = Table[Text] ); Table[Text] )
Regards.
Hi,
Drag the text to the row labels of a Table visual and then use this measure
=COUNTROWS(Data)
Hope this helps.
