Re[2]: RB - Top 25 Sales Results

Mike,

Guess I should have actually opened RB. I became curious and tried to get this
to work. Apparently the conditional printing doesn't work on an aggregated
grouped field. Sorry to lead you astray.

This is one more reason to use Crystal. The TopN function is a built in
function. A couple clicks and you would have exactly what you want.

Crystal has a MUCH more robust function set. Well worth the investment in money
and time in training.

My final 3 cents for the day...

Todd,

I tried the way Mike Low and Ed advised, it didn't work for me.
Do you have a sample report that you could e-mail to me?

I'd appreciate it.
