Two transactions - One in a table, one in a list box

Hi all,

I have two transactions that are feeding into my Qlikview app. 

I would like to be able to create a table that has data from one transaction, that I can then filter by using a list box based on the other transaction. 

When I try to do this, my table adds additional rows for where there are values in the other transaction that I only want to use in my list box.

Is there a way to stop this from happening, so my table only shows data from the one transaction and then doesn't grow when I make a selection from my list box that is being fed by the other transaction?

Please note there is a link from the first transaction through to the second, but the second transaction does not have a foreign key that links to the first. 

Thanks,

Rob

I think you can create an Alternate State and assign it to your list box.  Any selections there will not affect tables using the default state.  You can use the P() function to in a set analysis expression to limit data to the list box.
