Say I have a data table that I want to only show data if date range selected is 24 hours or more. If the user selects a data range less than 24 hours, I do not want to show results.
I was wondering if there is conditional statements like the following:
```auto
if (user select data range - 24h) is a positive data range:
show data
else:
show 'N/A'
```
Example output for over 24 hours:
```auto
Column1 Column2
Dogs 4
Cats 5
```
Example output for under 24 hours:
```auto
Column1 Column2
Dogs N/A
Cats N/A
```
Alternatively, I guess I can restrict the data range if that is possible....

There isn't a way to do that but perhaps I can help if you explain the larger problem you're solving. I can't think of another time when someone has wanted to exclude the display of data when data is present in a given time range.
