Blanks in Conditional Column

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have blanks in my column in the query and I am trying top use it in a conditional column.

What would the test be, it is not null as there is not a null in the column only a blank cell.

Thanks

Here's what you can do:

Create a "Custom column" where custom colum formula =""

Then, reference the newly created, totally blank column in your conditional column setup and "Voila!"

Hope this helps!

Namaste.
