question on trapping previous selection values

Count(DISTINCT {$1} KPI)

The above expression will display the values of KPI from the previous selections that were made.

Is there a way to retrieve the values of those selections ?  as in what shows in the 'Current Selections'  box.

May be like this:

Are there particular fields you are looking for? or it could be any selection? For particular object you can try this:

Concat(DISTINCT {$1} FieldName1, ', ')

Sunny:  not what I need - I need to find a way to go back in time to the previous selection and grab those values - if possibly they are stored somewhere.

this may have to work then - would be perfect if  it could be done like this:


getcurrentselections($1)
