I wish to understand what ideal scenario to make use of 'is anything' filter condition? and how it works?

I'm not sure that there is an ideal scenario here, as there are more graceful ways to accomplish the same thing.   I think the idea behind 'is anything' is to remove any null values from being returned (as opposed to just blank values).

Hi Manjul,



The thread doesn't holds information on what is the ideal scenario to use a 'is anything' filter condition. Rather it discuss issues with it.!

If i understand correctly 'IS ANYTHING' and 'IS NOT NULL' filter's functionalities are one and same?
