Hello! In a saved search, how can I add a formula (text) version of "is not -none-"? I've tried to use NULL and != '-none-', but still returning results with '-none-'

did you try "= NULL" or "IS NULL? "
IS NULL is the proper way of doing it. It sometimes acts up based on the field type but works most of the time.

thanks for the response! Yes, I've tried is not null and !=null, but still returning -none-. actual null/blanks are being filtered out, but not -none-

You can also try = ' ' (just an empty string).
or I guess !=

😕 tried that as well.. still getting -none-

I'm like running through my mind palace of stuff. lol. Have you tried using NVL({field}, ' ')?
That will return a blank in cases where a value is NULL. You can also use it for comparison like
Copy code
CASE WHEN NVL({customfield}, ' ') = ' ' THEN xxx ELSE xxx END
