How to filter data in DataMan using a variable

How can I filter in a DataMan using a variable

Hi @Griz2, 

if the variable is an integer, you can insert the @Var_name in the filter as in the image below 


If the variable is nominal or if you want to filter with a string in particular the step to follow are the following:

1. Create a new variable Var_1
2. Assign to it the function Var_1=ifelse(find($"NameOfTheVariableWhereYouWantToAplyTheFilter",@Var_name),1,0)
3. Filter Var_1 (equal to 1 in case you want to keep all the record with your variable value)
4. Delete Var_1 

Let me know if any passage is not clear to you.
