@h11Offset 46 is the end of your last line, I even think that you have only 45 caracters in line 5 so I tried creating two tables with same columns as you and pasting your measure : I did not have any error.

 

Are you sure that you do not have a caracter hidden at the end of your line 5 or a sixth line below ?

@Slim- Measure = VAR _SelectedValue = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Name])
VAR _Filtered = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Name]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Status] IN {"Approved", "In Progress"} && 'Table'[Name]=_SelectedValue))
VAR _All = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Name]))
RETURN
IF(ISBLANK (_SelectedValue), _All, _Filtered)
