Variable column names

Question

Hi,&nbsp;My goal is to color the values in each column if it has a N/A, I created one column which has the following formula:&nbsp;Font Color = SWITCH(TRUE(),'Scorecard Detail'[Q1 Target] = "N/A", "#787878", 'Scorecard Detail'[Q1 Target] &lt;&gt; "N/A", "#414141​")&nbsp;Problem is it's only 1 column - Q1 Target. I want to create only "one variable column"&nbsp; that will take into account Q2, Q3 Q4 Target so that I will not create 3 more other columns and copy the font color formula above.&nbsp;
