You can't select NULL, it's not a value / symbol you can select.

It seems that your record set shows identificacion  values that have no relation to Ca... (what ever your dimension field is named like) field values.

If you want to identify these identificacion values (or other related field values like a primary key ID), you can first select all Cam.. values, i.e. Inbound, Mail, Outbound, Ubicabilidad and then select the exluded values on field identificacion.

Hi Stefan

I had just this question:

This works beautifully  - when I make it a  sheet Trigger

Is there a way of doing the same thing in Set Analysis?  For example

The selections are: Null, Tinted, Normal

I want :

Count(widgets) when selection = NULL or selection = NORMAL

or alternatively

Count(widgets) when selection <> Tinted

Thank you for your help

Indeed! In fact "Null" is a rather controversial concept. If you really want to dig further (but I'm leaving the Qlik domain now) I can highly recommend these two blog posts:
