Thanks for sharing that link -- bookmarked!! It explains way better than I could what my dashboard and model are currently doing.

I had hoped the result would have been N/A, but I guess it makes sense as the formula is written.
I'm looking for a way to lock the filter so that it is always turned on and the user cannot disable it, forcing a filter selection. I guess the title of my original post is a little misleading now that I think about it -- sorry about that.
When it comes to forcing a filter selection without locking the filter. Hmm. If you are in a position to hide the regular dashboard filters, you can consider adding a filter through Blox or the old Community Filter Widget and disable the 'No Selection' options there.
It's an interesting challenge to be sure!
