DISTINCTCOUNT with uppercase or lowercase

Hello,

I need some help.

I have a column like that :

 

Aho00_0-1653999605841.png

 

 

and if i use DISTINCTCOUNT 'Table'[Profile] i got 3 as answer

 

But i would like it to be case sensitive and to obtain 5 as answer. (a,A,b,B,C)

 

How do you do that?

Thanks.

Well, the bad news is that Dax doesn't distinguish between upper and lower case letters.

The good news is that power query does.
What you can do is a GROUP BY in power query and then COUNTROWS in the grouped table.

Hello,

That's what i thought.

Guess i will rename it in power query since i need to do more than COUNTROWS.
I will open an other discussion for that.

 

Thanks
Have a nice day.
