Sometimes Peek() function returns Null() value

Hi everybody,

I was a lot of time thinking wy Peek() function returns a Null() value in my script code...

Here a part of it:

// Ahora definimos las variables para ver la fecha máxima y mínima de cara al montaje de las fechas.
FechasProyecciones:
Load Distinct FechaProy_tmp
Resident Proyecciones_tmp Order By FechaProy_tmp asc;

LET varMinDateProy=num(Peek('FechaProy_tmp',0,'FechasProyecciones'));

After searching the community and without a convincing post came to mind that the problem was precisely the null value. 

Right! the problem was the null values existing in 'FechaProy_tmp' field... so with a little change in the code of the LOAD function the problem was solved. Just were added a WHERE clause.

// Ahora definimos las variables para ver la fecha máxima y mínima de cara al montaje de las fechas.
FechasProyecciones:
Load Distinct FechaProy_tmp
Resident Proyecciones_tmp  Where not IsNull(FechaProy_tmp)
Order By FechaProy_tmp asc;

LET varMinDateProy=num(Peek('FechaProy_tmp',0,'FechasProyecciones'));

I hope will be usefull for everybody!
