Seems like I should know this but...

Hey everyone,

 

If I am using a FILTER for 15" (15 inches) how do I write the DAX? I have tried " "15" ", single quotes, double and single quotes and every variation I can think of but I am still getting errors. Can you please answer my dumb question 🙂 TIA

You would write it as 


"15"""  as in " x1 on the left and x3 on the right. the escape character for a quotation mark inside a string is represented as ""(two quotation marks).
