Select Table rows based on another Table

Hi Ajay,

There two ways to solve this question. Creating a relationship or using measure

A:creating a relationship

you can create a relationship between these tables and you can follow along with my steps.

1 after you create these tables you need, go to the model view

Under the home tab, select the Manage relationships

2 Then it will show the manage relationship windows and click new icon.

3 In the Create relationship dialog box, in the first table drop-down list, select a table. Select the column you want to use in the relationship.

4 In the second table drop-down list, select the other table you want in the relationship. Select the other column you want to use, and then elect OK.

5 then go to the report view, create two table visuals like these.

Under such conditions, if you select any row which has Name=James in Table1, the Values which matches James in Table 2 should be selected and displayed.

If you would like to know more about how to create and manage relationships, please see the following articles.

B:using a measure

Prerequisites: there no relationship between these tables.

1 After you create table, create a new measure

Measure 1 =

            Var _x=selectedvalues(‘table 1’[Name])

            Return

            If( _x=max(‘table’[Name]),1,0)

2 then put Measure 1 into table 2’s Filters, setting the Measure 1 show items when the value is 1 as the following image show and apply filter.

3 Then you select any one of name in table 1, the table 2 will display matched name in table 2.
