Hi all,

i got a strange issue. In view → table, i can see value “-” in column ‘Region’.

However, when I try to search it in column search dialog , i can’t find it.

The datasource of this column is coming from a customize excel sheet. 

 

Can anyone help on this issue ?

My guess is that the value is not really a hyphon string “-” but rather NULL. 
Therefore you can’t really find it in search bar properly.

If you want to filter by that I would sort by that column Ascending then it will show those rows on top. If you then click the cell it will create a filter on top saying “Region (blank)”

@manuel.wetze  thanks.

Yes. You are right. after click the cell and filter shows ‘(blank)’.

So, the search bar properly won’t show ‘NULL’ in the list ?

And , if I keep this ‘blank’ values on the top filter bar and remove other filter conditions , i can’t see any results. Is it normal ?
