Report Builder: Is there a way to filter a filter?

Dear Anyone,

We have a report model that connects to a single table. Some of the columns of the table contains blank values which is regarded as a valid value in our reports.

We have a requirement that the filter selection should not contain any blank values. They do not want to include a blank value for the users to choose but if the users decide not to use a filter, those blank values should still be included in the report.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this in RB? We already made this work in RS2k5 but we can't seem to find any way to do this in RB.

Thanks,
Joseph

No, there is no way to control the list of values presented to the user. It is always a list of all existing values in the underlying database.
