Hello!
I have a column is a text, like aa,bb,aa,aa,aa,cc,aa,aa,.. I need to count how many times aa has appeared in this text.
table is like this
ID Action
001 aa,bb,aa,aa,aa,cc,aa,aa
002 bb,cc,aa,aa,aa,cc,aa,aa,aa,aa,aa
003 aa,dd,dd,aa,aa,aa
I need to add a column to show how many times aa appeared in action for each id.
Thank you in advance for your kind help!

Hi DuoHappy,
Try creating a new calculated column with the following DAX:
Just be careful of case sensitivity.

You can try a new custom column in the example below by using Power Query
Count M Code for custom column (Text.Length([#"Action"])-Text.Length(Text.Replace([#"Action"],"aa","")))/2
Hi @MDodds , Thank you very much! It is a very smart way! As I am looking for aa instead of a, I think the formula should be : NumberofAAs = (LEN('Table'[Action])-LEN(SUBSTITUTE('Table'[Action],"aa","")))/2, right?
Spot on, good result.
