Data Showing Up With a - Filter Problem

Hello:

I have a straight table with various fields, but a key field of CHARGE_MONTH.  When I do a filter using a Multi-List box for a particular CHARGE_MONTH, I get results for that CHARGE_MONTH but also rows for CHARGE_MONTH values of "-" (without the quotes).  The multi-list box has an aggregate of =aggr(if(Not WildMatch(CHARGE_MONTH, '2015*'), CHARGE_MONTH), CHARGE_MONTH) because I do not want to show / display / sum values for 2015.

The format of CHARGE_MONTH is YYYYMM.  I only wish to show overall without any filters 2016MM values and then when I filter for a specific month, I only want / need to see values for that particular month.  For example, if I filter for 201609, I only want to see rows for 201609 and not anything else like "-" rows (again, without the quotes).

Every single row of my data has a valid CHARGE_MONTH value in the form of YYYYMM.

As always, thanks in advance for any and all help.

On your dimensions tab, did you check 'Suppress When Value Is Null' option?

Ah ha!  I did not have that checked.  I checked it and that took care of the problem.  I've learned something else.  Thank you for your assistance.  I'm slowly but surely becoming more knowledgeable.    Thanks again.
