count rows with many search conditions

Hello
I want to count rows that has the words "Basal" and "Rapid" but doens't contain "Premix" and "GLP"
The measure equation that I'm using is not giving the right solution
Any suggestions?
 
Basal +Rapid = CALCULATE(COUNT(PRF[INTNR]),SEARCH("Basal",PRF[Q15],,0)<>0,SEARCH("Rapid",PRF[Q15],,0)<>0,SEARCH("Premix",PRF[Q15],,0)=0,SEARCH("GLP",PRF[Q15],,0)=0)/CALCULATE(COUNT(PRF[INTNR]))

Hi!
CONTAINSSTRING() is probably a better function for this. I'm unsure if you want to use AND or OR as your operators for the required and forbidden words, so you would have to adjust accordingly, but something like this (also adjust table and columns names to your model):

AND in both cases:

Basal + Rapid = 
CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Words]),
    AND(CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"Basal"),CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"Rapid")) && 
    NOT AND(CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"Premix"),CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"GLP"))
    )

 
OR in both cases:

Basal + Rapid = 
CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Words]),
    OR(CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"Basal"),CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"Rapid")) && 
    NOT OR(CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"Premix"),CONTAINSSTRING('Table'[Words],"GLP"))
    )

 

Hope this helps!

I used your formula and changed it a bit using the OR and AND statements.

So my twicked formula count the rows that contain 'Basal' or 'Rapid' texts AND do not contain the text 'Premix' or 'GLP'

 

  

Basal +Rapid =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( PRF[INTNR] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( PRF ),
        (
            SEARCH ( "Basal", PRF[Q15],, BLANK () ) > 0
                || SEARCH ( "Rapid", PRF[Q15],, BLANK () ) > 0
        )
            && (
                SEARCH ( "Premix", PRF[Q15],, BLANK () ) = 0
                    || SEARCH ( "GLP", PRF[Q15],, BLANK () ) = 0
            )
    )
)
    / CALCULATE ( COUNT ( PRF[INTNR] ) )
