you get away with some global replace or would it not work for you?

I'm trying to get around the comma issue by replacing all the commas in the value field with '%' and changing the qualifier to LIKE from '='. This works, however the update command on the mart editor (v0.4, we still cannot get v0.6 to run) automatically undoes all of my changes.


do you mean update on 0.4 changes 'ike' to '='?

On a related topic, is there an maximum number of filter options allowed? I just received a warning "Too many Options for filter" when trying to restart our mart.


yes, there is in 0.4 (set to 200 as far as I remember) .This has now been removed in 0.6 We can point you to the bit of code in MEditor 0.4 which does the check, you can comment
this  out if you want

a.


Thanks,

Andrew

All,
 
I have a simple question here.  Does a comma pose any problem when in
a filter value?
 
I ask, because I have a filter list.  One of the values in the filter
list is "Anemia, Sickle Cell".  However, I only get results whose
value is "Anemia".  Basically the value is truncated after the comma. 
This is the same for all values with a comma, which unfortunately is a
lot of them.
