If this does not help, can you post the commands you are trying and the stack trace to debug.

Hi @Namit Maheshwari

Thanks for your response. I have placed the screenshots in the attached file, please have a look. It's a very simple FILTER command on a set of just 10 records.

Rashmi your screenshot is not very readable.

Can you type the script you are trying to run below?

@Rashmi Gupta

There is a spelling mistake in your alias.

grunt> moive_rate = FILTER movie_a BY year==1994;
grunt> dump movie_rate;

When you assign you give that as moive_rate (Here the spelling is wrong for movie) whereas when you dump you give it as movie_rate.

Please try after correcting the spelling.
