Count Number of Times a Word is Found in All Columns of a Table

Hello,

 

Does anyone know of a way in DAX or maybe a different solution to check all columns in a table for a certain word and if the word is found return a 1 or even a count of how mant times the work was found?

 

For example, I need the count of Red for a record but want to check all columns without listing them in my DAX

Hello @Justair07 

 

you can do this easily with power query:

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WCkpNUdJRcsopTQVSEA6IjI0FAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Column1 = _t, Column2 = _t, Column3 = _t, Column4 = _t]),
    ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Column1", type text}, {"Column2", type text}, {"Column3", type text}, {"Column4", type text}}),

    Test = Table.AddColumn(ChangedType, "WordCount", each List.Count(List.Select(Record.ToList(_), each Text.Contains(_, "Red"))), Int64.Type)
in
    Test
