How do I replace a hyphen with a blank ?


Hi All,

I have a text object on a dashboard which displays a Country field thus, =[Country]

However, if the country value doesn't exist, or is not applicable to the selection then a hyphen is displayed -

How can I replace the hyphen in this instance with a blank space ?

Thanks in anticipation

right click-properties-presentation then remove null symbol - and missing value - with blank and you will get it by removing the hyphen put a space and hit enter you will get blank.

Hi,

I'm confused. A text object doesn't have a Presentation tab. And I can't find the null symbol you're talking about either !
