Read data from an unreferenced table.

Hello, I have a doubt with Show_If.
I need to read the value of a Yes/No field of a master table that tells me whether or not I should show certain fields of the data table.
Two important facts:
1. The master table is not related in any way to the data table.
2. The master table only has one record.
Thanks for your great help.

Since your master table has only one record, you can use this expression to retrieve the value of your Yes/No column, and since it is a Yes/No value, you can use the expression as is in the Show if field:

ANY(masterTableName[Yes/No columnName])

First or last: INDEX()

Others: SELECT()

Perfect solution.
Abusing your knowledge, I would like to know what happens if the master table has more than one record and I want to see the value of a field of a certain row: first, last or row number.
Thank you very much for everything.

First or last: INDEX()

Others: SELECT()
