Hello,
I've got a column of data which contains cells that are either numeric or a combination of alpha-numeric.
What I'like to do is to have a measure that looks at the column and does a count of how many cells only contain numeric characters and how many are alpha- numeric. I would display the count of these on two separate cards.
I couldn't work out a way to calculate with a measure cells containing any characters from [A-Z]. If it's not possible is there a good solution to create a calcuated column?
Thankyou

Hi @Liamp ,
Try to create two measure.
alpha- numeric = COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table',IFERROR(VALUE([Lesson]),BLANK())=BLANK()))only contain numeric = COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table',IFERROR(VALUE('Table'[Lesson]),BLANK())<>BLANK()))
