I have a problem with data filtering in KoBo tables as question (type = select one) depend on "if the name contain … " not on “the whole value” and not on its label
for example:
i have “select one” question, choices labels are unique but its name are sequential names, after collecting data i found when i filter this column will not be completely accurate
i.e. choices are as follow:
names : con 1 , con 11 , con 12
labels: Rany , Ahmad , John
If i filter data column by selecting Rany for example, all the other data related to Ahmad and John will appear because their names contain “1” !!!

Hello,
The KoBo behaviour seems to be contains (not equals). You may have a look at a previous posting, incl. a github link
https://community.kobotoolbox.org/t/filter-appears-to-be-a-sub-string-match-rather-then-the-exact-match/12347.
But maybe @Kal_Lam can say how a complex condition can be entered in the KoBo filter cell. With an ¬ condition you might be able to limit the search further.

@hazem_118, could you also share with us a screenshot of your issue? Maybe this should help us understand your issue pictorially.
@hazem_118, this is very clear now. Could you share with me the following through a private message so that we could now have a closer look at your case:
