RE: IWP/Jacana

Lloyd,

A couple of thoughts here might help.

You could create one report that has no detail lines but does give the
totals for each company.  Then, if more detail is desired for the company or
top companies, create another report that selects only the detail for a
company input at run time.

You could also put print criteria on the detail lines that says "Print only
if the page number is less than 10" or something like that.

Hello folks,

An IWP/Jacana question:


How do I write a report that, among the select criteria, is a selection
value
that asks how many records I want returned?

For example, I create a report that returns customer, Items shipped,
quantity
and net dollar value of shipments for selected date range in descending
order.

What do I add to select criteria that will let me tell report at run time,
how
may of the records I want returned? (top 10, top 25, top 50, etc.)

Attached/Below is example of what I have so far, but all customers are
returned.
(thousands of pages) Upper management might, at runtime, want info on the
top
ten customers at run time...


Cust Number/Name            Item        Description         QTY     Net
