Table Boxes - hide certain values?

Hi all -

Suppose I have a table box displaying a number of values across a number of fields.

Column 1 Column 2Column 3Column 4Column 5Column 6Column 7Column 8

If I just put in the fields (Column 1-8), the table would display exactly as above.  What if, however, I want to display the same fields but hide all lines where the value is UNKNOWN for Column 2?  Thanks!

Try with expression

If( [Column 2] = 'UNKNOWN' , ' ', [Column 2] )

As the calculation condition?

is it an option to add a listbox?

=if([Column 2]='UNKNOWN', 'UNKNOWN', 'OTHER')

No - the object must display as a table so that it can be exported as such to Excel.

Hi

You  can create a  calculated dimension

if( [Column 2] <> 'UNKNOWN' ,[Column 2] )

Would this be done in the Load Script, or elsewhere?  There's no option for a calculated dimension in a Table Box.

No, there's no Dimension selection in a table box. Build a new Chart Box with Dimensions selected as the same columns in your table and add a single expression to count the lines (you can hide the expression). Now you can add a new calculated Dimension as above.
