Hi Lisa

 

I think there is a way but you have to do something in configuration menu to prevent the field value from being a dropdown.

 

GS helped me with this.  I think you go to manage table/columns in configuration, select objects, then locations and right click.  Then untick ‘display as distinct list in queries’ under attributes in the edit column box (see below).  I did this a long time ago, so maybe check with GS if this is correct before you do it!

 

That way I can search on field value is not equal to * for the site.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

 

Caroline

Could anyone tell me if there is an easy way to search for records that have no current location recorded?
