Thanks Lars,

Would it be best to remove that from the drop down list since it isn't
meant to work in the event view?

As I can see this would be confusing to others who find it there and expect
it to work similarly.

My use case can only work if I create a program indicator and use the pivot
table. Not as elegant as the event reports, but it works.
