Thanks a mill. Much appreciate that.

I have SR7 - can I just down the latest version?

Your are talking about the desktop client, right?

Yes, you should be able to download the latest QV 11.20 SR (12, I believe) fromt the Qlik download site.

If you are working in a company, might be advisable to check if there are any restrictions on downloading and using different QV versions.

Yes the desktop client.

I have a version on my own laptop but actually I remote into a client's

server, so they'd actually have to install it there.

Thanks for your help.

Hi

I'm having a different problem now with these alternate states and the drill down.

Because I have made the graph's state the default state to get the drill down to work, the filters on the sheet don't apply to my chart, which means I need to make all my list boxes part of the default state, which then basically means I'm not using an alternate state.

Can anyone help please? Is there a way to make sure the chart filters the data based on the sheet's alternate state and still have the drill downs working?

I am using this expression to make my dimension visible

=if(GetFieldSelections(DimGroup,';',10, 'GraphC')  like '*Account*', true(), false())

Thanks

Absolutely awesome - fixed my issue

=Concat({[AlternateStateName]}DimensionName)

Thank you
