Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous
There is a way maybe more complicated, but you can sum the strings of the entire table . Calculate the strings in each column separately and then sum these counts .
For example :
POS 1-1 = COUNTA('The export'[POS 1])
POS 2-1 = COUNTA('The export'[POS 2])
POS 3-1 = COUNTA('The export'[POS 3])
……………
POS 11-1 = COUNTA('The export'[POS 11])
And then sum these counts
Total = CALCULATE('The export'[POS 1-1]+'The export'[POS 2-1]+'The export'[POS 3-1]+……………… +'The export'[POS 11-1])
You will get the sum of strings in table .
