Thank you informative, i did the exercise with you. When i entered the slicer on your data i also have "blanks". I checked in the transform data file, but can not see any blanks.

[@TeachersTech]

I’ll check too, make sure I uploaded the right file.

Looking at you data file, what do you consider as very important tips to keep in mind.
