Hi vfx661 ,
Here's the measure returns the result based on your scenario.
my_desc = VAR my_table = TOPN(1,'DESC_TABLE') return MAXX(my_table,[DESC])In addition to MAXX, MINX, if it is a numeric column, you can also use SUMX.
Also you can use summarize to return the single column.
my_desc = VAR my_table = TOPN(1,'DESC_TABLE') return SUMMARIZE(my_table,[DESC])Best Regards,
