Variables not working as expected .?

Hi there,

The format of the variable is not working in Qlikview App.

I am using variables to work on the format , but still its holding the format even though anything is not selected.

Textbox Cohort1 expression = Num($(v_g1compmeasure1_expr),$(v_compmeasure1format))

First textbox with null value  =v_g1compmeasure1_expr

 

Second textboc holding the format variable = =v_compmeasure1_format.

 

The same variable worked it other Apps as expected like when not selected its showing null but in the app its showing Error : Error in expression because of the format. how to resolve the error message.

Hi there,

How to check if getselectedcount(_compmeasure1)  then

Num($(v_g1compmeasure1_expr),$(v_compmeasure1_format))

else 

Null

can you post a screenshot of the entire expression editor window so we can see what the expression is evaluating to?

Help me with the expression in text box :-

if GetSelectedCount is Null show "-"

else

Num($(v_g1compmeasure1_expr),$(v_compmeasure1_format))

 

I tried the below expression but not working -

=if(GetSelectedCount(_compmeasure1)=1,Num($(v_g1compmeasure1_expr),$(v_compmeasure1_format)))

The problem I found is the variable v_compmeasure1_format is always '#,##0'.

But the other apps have three of them like below

Thus its showing null as "-" . while when having only one format - it showing Error : Error in expression.

Any suggestion to get rid of the message Error : Error in expression and show "-" ?
