Hey data i've imported contains several duplications, I've tried distinct load but to no luck. could you please suggest some course of actions to remove the duplications?
at present it looks something like...
balanceCurrent | balanceFuture | PostingDate | documentDate
433.50 -230.53 30/09/2014 30/09/2014
202.97 -108.24 1/09/2014 28/06/2014
202.97 -108.24 1/09/2014 28/06/2014
202.97 -108.24 30/09/2014 30/09/2014
94.73 0.00 1/09/2014 28/06/2014
94.73 0.00 1/09/2014 28/06/2014
94.73 0.00 30/09/2014 30/09/2014
thanks

see attachment
if this is your req (distinct balance)
Hey Massimo,
thank you for your reply.
Yes that is something im looking for. I have tried using disctinct in the script but it still showing the same thing. should I declare it as an expression?
Hi,
distinct load seems to work for your sample data:
LOAD Distinct * INLINE [
balanceCurrent, balanceFuture, PostingDate, documentDate
433.50, -230.53, 30/09/2014, 30/09/2014
202.97, -108.24, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014
202.97, -108.24, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014
202.97, -108.24, 30/09/2014, 30/09/2014
94.73, 0.00, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014
94.73, 0.00, 1/09/2014, 28/06/2014
94.73, 0.00, 30/09/2014, 30/09/2014
];
can you post your app?

Hey Massimo
could you please upload a .txt instead? im using the personal edition and can no longer open other qvw's.
thanks.
Bon.
Hey Marco.
thank you for your reply, my datasource is coming from a odbc, not sure if will make any difference as to what you've suggested.
there must be some difference in the values if distinct does not work.
I've been trying to look for the differences but cant seem to find it. is there a way to specify that if balanceCurrent, balanceFuture, postingDate and DocumentDate matches remove the row? would that be my best approach? or would the problem be with my calendar?

Hey Massimo, thank you for that.
balanceCurrent & balanceFuture is in the PeriodSummary table, and Posting is in the Invoice table,
should i concatenate them together? or is there a better way around this?
