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.
