While working on a Jet Report for a client recently, working with data from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, I had need to return the output of an NL Filter into another function which required a string rather than a list, which meant that I couldn’t use the NL Filter directly.

I added the NP function to cell E4 which shows the result of the join function and which I could reference from elsewhere:
