hi dears

anyone knows what is the problem with my condition? i think with the part about FullDate...

this is my own code:

Count ( Distinct { <[Cls Type]={"2","7"} ,[Full Date]={"<=($Variable2)"} >}[Id Order])

Hi,

Try this

Count ( Distinct { <[Cls Type]={'2','7'} ,[Full Date]={"<=$(=Variable2)"} >}[Id Order])

Make sure you have proper date format.

You are right,

try to delete the date condition and check if it works.

if the answer is yes then verify the value of the variable and the format of the date in the field. surely they do not match.

Let me know

yes when i delete it, the code works.

fulldate is a string and variable2 is comming from an input box that chooses from fulldates. so i think they are in a same type and format.

another test : take a Full Date value and replace the variable with that value, check if it works.

And I've seen that you have written the variable as $variable2 but the correct syntax is $(variable2)

let me know

the code is related to column a.

Hi,

This wont work as you cannot compare string with <=

Hence I suggest you to store date as numerical value ans compare with numbers.

By default QlikView will not support Hijri Calender.
