    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You can check it in the original tables.

     

    Couldn’t you change the data type in Transform->Data Type in Query Editor , as well in Modeling->Data type in Report view or Data view?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Best Regards,

    Amy

      Hi Amy,

       

      That was the first thing i've tried but i saw no results, maybe was because the changes didn't apply at first. Later i reopened the file and the format type was correct (numeric). I think that was all.

       

      Thank you very much for the help.

       

      Regards.
