I have a table with years which I want to be able so sort year by year. But as you see when I trying to add filters to the table, One year apperas sevral times in the filter list, and the list ends att year 2001 even though the years in the table exceeds until 2022,
Does anyone have a clue why it does like this?
Hi @LarsPW ,
It's recommended that you change the data type of the year column to whole number type first, and then sort it.
