Currently, the script is as follow

Margin from table xyz;

working fine but when I add DIRECT SELECT I get error..

TableA:

Best,

Alec

Try to create a straight table with alla dimensions and expression (measure)

and List box for any dimensions and try more selections.

I think there are many records.

Try to add other dimensions and reduce the selection by selecting in list table

thank you Antonio but didnt work.. the table is very small.. I couldn't export to excel but here is a screenshot of the full table in a table box.

When trying to use a chart table and add any of the dimensions below and sum of Benchmark value I get the error as show above in my previous reply.

I'm sorry Alec.

Maybe Codepage is not correct.
