Hello, In this case here the function “If-Then-Else” with “IS EMPTY” "is not doing the exact opposite of what it should be? Is that a bug? ![bug_if_relation](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/b/b3eca729d2c4618f247a2754eb0c2423e398272e.png) the problem appears in the next column, returning the values exactly where “IS NOT EMPTY” … ![if_bug](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/8/82d309e8dc8dee977ca8dcd6c8bb407f92641ef3.png) ---

but I see the logic right and the result too. Only 2 rows aren’t empty therefore, I can see 2 zeros (0) in your screenshot. Saludos @Rodrigo_Serpa ---

Thanks @gvalero, but I just put the other image of the problem, where it returns the opposite, where de rows IS NOT EMPYT…Do you know what could be wrong? ---

Aja… I think I have seen what you mean. Let me check one of my APPs to show you the same problem and its workaround. I will be back! ---

@Rodrigo_Serpa This was what I saw days ago with something similar to your case. At the beginning, my original logic was this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/c/ce312c9d4041dac3574ba46caebccf2418075f08.png) but it never worked fine and I supposed it was a bug. Later, I exchanged the logic and parameters like this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/9/9b1c600301bcc4baf01ee19e9f51fb123fec3bc9.png) … and everything works perfectly!. There is something wrong with IF-Then-Else component when the first **THEN field** is empty by default. I think @Mark can see it and fix the bug quickly. Feliz día! ---

@gvalero Sorry, I cannot reproduce this. Could you please share the app you’re seeing this on, and tell me exactly how to reproduce it? ---

Sure @Mark As soon as I come back to my house I will make a simple APP to help you. The issue is when the **first** THEN field is blank using **Is Empty** as conditional. Nos vemos ---

I tried that, and it worked as expected: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/7/7cda53e4293da7308bf0c7472e5e37d26ee9abcd.png) ---

Hi Mark, in my app column I have 2 cases (like a “IF(AND(…”) and only when I put these 2 cases together the problem appears (exactly like the second image I put) ---

I can’t see what’s going on in your second screenshot because all the columns you’re using are obscured. You can move columns by dragging them on the header. ---

Sure, now is clear. The condition is set "IS EMPTY"but the return are in rows IS NOT EMPTY ![bug_if2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/3/3afdcaa0ebc6adf5cdc82516203c0a57541fbf49.png) ---

Sorry, I don’t understand. Your If-Then-Else column says If `SELECT_COD` is empty, produce an empty value Otherwise, if `ANO` is `2019`, produce `RENT_ACM` Otherwise, produce an empty value That seems to be exactly what it’s doing. ---

Hi again Reviewing my APP now I can see my problem disappeared, everything is ok now but this issue was there 1-2 weeks ago. I was using 8 columns with that logic and none worked so I had to use an reverse logic as workaround and everything worked w/o problems. Well, close this case! Gracias @Mark ---

Hi Mark, As @gvalero wrote my app started to work well too. Even with DATA ok, the app for some reason used to do the opposite logic, but now it’s solved. Thanks!
