I am using PrimeNG 6.0.2 with Angular 5 and I'm having issues with the **Table** plugin. I switched to Table because DataTable is deprecated. Now, I can't access filtered values the way I could before.

Let's say I define my table in component via ViewChild:

```
@ViewChild('myTable') dataTable: Table;

```

With DataTable, I could just access the *\_value* property which held sorted and filtered data:

```
dataTable._value[index] = ...;

```

But now, this property hold just the sorted array, while I have to use the *filteredValue* property:

```
dataTable.filteredValue[index] = ...;

```

My problem with this is that the *filteredValue* is `undefined` before any filtering, has value when the table is filtered and is `null` after I remove all filter text. This yields some pretty ugly code. 

Is it possible to access the current data, be it sorted, filtered or identical to the starting array? Or do I have to go with this approach?
