    Hey Anonymous ,

     

    if the result is good and you just want to remove the word "first" then click with the right mouse button to the field, chose "Rename for this visual" and remove the "First" from the name:

    You are creating what are called implicit measures where it is taking the first value of that column.  If you don't want them aggregated, you need to put those columns in the Rows field well (not Values).  Or you can create an explicit measure with an expression (e.g., NewMeasure = MIN(Table[Column]) ) if you do want an aggregation but don't want it to say "First".

    Hey Anonymous ,

     

    add the calculated column to the "Rows" with drag and drop. I think that's what you want.
