CONFUSED WITH USING CONTAINS, CONTAINSSTRING NEED HELP!

Hi guys,  all I want to do is simply count all sales orders that contains at least 1 of the products for a selected order.  My forumla is shown below.  Essentially just confused on how to use contains or containsstring to essentially search for shared values.

I will call you table Sales. I assume you are using a card visual. You may try

No of Orders =
VAR SelectedProductds =
    VALUES ( Sales[Products] )
VAR CorrespongingSales =
    FILTER ( ALL ( Sales ), Sales[Products] IN SelectedProductds )
VAR CorrespondingOrders =
    DISTINCT ( SELECTCOLUMNS ( CorrespongingSales, Sales[Order No] ) )
RETURN
    COUNTROWS ( CorrespondingOrders )

How does your data look like. Can you share screenshots of the tables and the date model blanking out any sensitive data. 

I only have 1 table - products and orders are in the same table. So if an order has 4 products associated with it then it would have 4 lines
