I have received a couple of good solutions to this problem, including the
one from Jim listed below. However, with a few more scratches of my head I
realized that the part description of all of these items BEGINS with 60".
Therefore is used a filter Part Description BEGINS '60"'. Report works now.
Thanks to all who replied.

If your width designation is aways in positions 5-6 of the part number, you
can create a calculated field called "Width"
Substring(Partnum,5,2)
then include "Width" in the filter ----> Width = "60" which would
yield all parts with a width of 60.
Hope this helps.

I am trying to create a report for a few inventory items. These items come
in different colors and sizes. The part number indicates color and size.
For
example Black rolls of Vinyl have the following part numbers:
742-15
742-20
742-30
742-60
The 742 means BLACK and the 15, 20 ,30, 60 mean width. I only want this
report to show me on hand quantity for the part numbers that are 60" wide.
How do I get Report Builder to make this selection?
Thank in advance
