Dear collective gurus

Thank you for your advice...I have three separate tables containing non sensitive appointment details for three clinics. I can perform a distinctcount(tableone[HealthID]) / two / three etc to get the unique number of different people attending each clinic. My question relates to the overlap of clinics. How do I calculate the number of unique people attending all of the clinics combined?

I am sure FILTER pops in there somewhere but it clearly isn't the distinctcount of the distinctcounts - if you see what I mean. In a Venn diagramm it would be the people who feature in either one, two or all three clinics.
I am happy to provide a table if this elaborates but I am positive the collective brainpower will solve this in a heartbeat (one of the clinics by the way ;-))

Many thanks

Dougie
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Why not append each table so that for analysis purposes you have one table. Then run your distinct count against the aggregated table.
