Slice : returning rows with a specific value

Hello, seeking help please. 

I have a google doc with each row containing a lesson for that period of the school day. I am trying to use the slice tool to only show specific classes in a view. I have typed the column title and class code into the expression builder eg: [class]=11Db2. For some classes it works and only shows rows with that class code, for others all rows are shown and it does not work. Im confused. Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Doug

You probably need to show more about your setup to get direct guidance regarding any problems with the technique you're applying and maybe suggestions regarding more efficient techniques to accomplish what you need.

Meanwhile, one detail is that you should enclose text values in quotes:

[class]="11Db2"

I'd suggest using SELECT()

Example:

SELECT(table[Lessons], ([Class]="11Db2"))

That way, you can search the whole [Lessons] table for the set [Class] equalling "11Db2"
