ELIMINATE NULL ROWS

Attached  please find the sample qvw, sample Excel .  What I am trying to accomplish is as per the snapshot policy number 356541 has multiple file numbers assigned to it and also there is a null value assigned to the same policy number.  In a case like this where there is even 1 File number exist for a policy number  I want to eliminate the rows for the same policy number with null values, but if Null Value is the only entry available for a policy then I want that Null value for example in this  case I would like to see the row for policy number 36547.

Load * From <Data Source> Where File <> Peek('File', -1);

Or

Load * From <Data Source> Where Previous(File) <> File;

Load * From <Data Source> Where Len(File)>0;

I really don't why you need this. For your question answer may be this

Load * From <Data Source> Where If(Previous(POL_POLICYNUMBER) = POL_POLICYNUMBER,Len(File)>0, POL_POLICYNUMBER)

Does that answer your question?
