SLICERS -> blank value

I have a question about using slicers in my report. I make slicer which show the two years, I have just two values in my year table. But I also see blank value , is it possible to hide this one ?  ...

    adamgor A work around I use quite often is to start with a visual that allows you to filter the value, select/exclude the blank, then change the visual to a slicer and the blank should be gone.

Another great way to deal with this is using the custom visual "Chicklet Slicers" by Microsoft. I had this slicer issue - mine included not only blanks, but also other records represented in the slicer that had a null or zero value for the measure I was hoping to filter them by. Using the chicklet slicer, the report not only looks better, but easily filtered out the records in the slicer that did not have a value by dragging the measure I was using into the data field of the slicer visual.

Thanks you bourquejeff was struggling to find a way around that one that didn't involve a Page Filter......
