Listbox with a column with multiple choices

Hi!

I am fairly new with Qlikview, so my question might be simple ...

I have a list box contaning the months (field LIST_MONTH), January, February, etc.

I have a column called MonthsValue, that could contains one month, or many months , like "March,September,October", Comma separated. What would be the expression to be able to get the list of the selected months ...

Thanks

And that is exactly why I didn't touch your Fact table... It is retained as is and without any duplication of rows. Any duplication done is within the BridgeTable... which should not really have a huge negative impact... only change is that I would add DISTINCT to the BridgeTable Load

BridgeTable:

LOAD DISTINCT MonthsValue,

    SubField(MonthsValue, ',') as LIST_MONTH

Resident Fact;

I would suggest doing this in the script...

Fact:

LOAD MonthsValue,

     ...

From ....;

BridgeTable:

LOAD MonthsValue,

     SubField(MonthsValue, ',') as LIST_MONTH

Hi,

Try this:

Concat(DISTINCT LIST_MONTH,',')

Good luck
