Hi, I have this local database with a number of tables. The common thing for all tables are that i would like to filter out the data that only contains rows for a certain user. I have followed this [tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0h4xMWPtalY) to do so, but I have some questions. I have a page in my app with a dataviewlist that shows one activity table. In the tutorial he changes the dataviewlist table to show a temp table. The problem for me of doing this is that I will not see the new data that is added in the activity table. How shall I be able to filter but not chaning the dataviewlist table to a temp table? ---

You could add another data viewer that is invisible, and when you hit your filter button make the main viewer invisible and the filtered one visible. ---
