Set command issues

[Krish]

I have a condition for a text object where I have to select employees whose ID starts with 4.

I have written sum({<empid  = {"4*"}>}sal)

This works fine for that condition. But when I select a particular employee like 4000 it is not filtering it out.

How can this be done.

Thanks.

If by filtering you mean making an selection in the empid field then you can solve it using the following adjusted expression .

sum({<empid *= {"4*"}>}sal)
