Normally will a datatype and it's format be interpreted from the first record of this field and if there are changes (per different sorting or filtering or other script-changes) it could be that the interpretation is different then before. Possible is also that qv had changed the functionalities by the interpretation - maybe there is a note within the release notes.

I think it's downgraded.  How this is calculated?

Sorry misunderstood in hurry. So how it is calculated?

It looked that the datatype changed from string to numeric. Have you any issue with this change?

Hi Kushal,

It is coming from a table which has a datatype varchar(50).

Few of the elements as string and appear on the left side in the filter pane. And other few are appearing on the right side.These have '+' sign.

I think I would load these field in this way:

dual(num(keepchar(AGE, '0123456789')) & '+', num(keepchar(AGE, '0123456789'))) as AGE

but you couldn't do this directly within a SQL statement - you will need a preceeding load or a resident load for it.

Edit: with your new details I wouldn't do the dual() else I would load this field with text().

You can always fix the alignment of a particular field from the document properties. This would change the alignment for Multibox and List box throughout the application

Select Left for both Text and Numbers and that would give you left oriented field.
