CountROW contains multiple text strings - single column

Greetings, 

My data set concatenates multiple field values into a single cell where they appear in the same record. However, there are two variants of each value.  

Trying to create a count measure of rows that contain one value, another value or both. For instance, a five count of rows that contain Blue Car or Blue Truck, and omit Blue Van. 

Record No.Product
875534Blue Truck
875535Blue Car, Blue Truck
875536Blue Van
875537Red Car, Blue Truck
875538Red Car, Red Van
875539Blue Car, Red Truck
875540Blue Car


I've been looking for hours and found a filter query that would return the cells containing one value (rows 1 and 7), but none of the combined ones. Ive been working with CONTAINSSTRING, but can't fugure out how to add add second variable.  

Thank you!

Hi @stvitus 

First you need to manually create a disconnected table that contains all the unique values ("Blue car", "Ref Truck", ect.) to be used as a slicer. Then the CountMeasure would be 

 

CountMeasure =
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
'Table',
NOT ISEMPTY (
FILTER ( SlicerTable, CONTAINSSTRING ( 'Table'[Product], SlicerTable[Value] ) )
)
)
)

 

you can also place it in the filter and filter is 1 or is not 0
