Mockery? Everybody was a noob at one point. I've been fighthing with SQL Server for about 10 years and I still ask silly questions.

No, without the data engine installed on...

I would leave the tables separate. You can write a query/function in DAX to do the counts. If they're separate, it makes creating basic measures much easier.

,(5, null, 4545)
,(6, 601, 4545)
,(7, 601,...

If you're doing this in PowerBI, don't you want a measure that calculates a count, like COUNTROWS('FactTable') and then use CALCULATE() to modify the evaluation context?

Here's an example of doing...

Got some sample data? That would help a LOT.

Looks like this works. Here's some data... this is what Jeff is talking about... readily consumable data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT SCRIPTS.)
