In the columns tab put the Sharecode in the 1st position and the Amt in the 2nd.

Only Sum the Amt field.

This should give you the totals for each shrcode.

For the filter below you said you set the filter to 2 and nothing showed. Is that the only filter or do you have the filter for 1 still there?

I get an error message when I "only sum the amt field"

I have two filters, one for share code 1 and the other for share code 2 and when I run the report I get no data. But when I have one filter it gives me the total just for the share code I select.

Can you screen shot the Columns tab and the Filter tab?

Also what files are you pulling the data from?

I created a container for the csv file...

So if you have both the fields Sum'd and no filter does it show all of the codes with the correct totals?

No. It gives me one Grand Total for the whole csv file.

But I discovered something...I was playing around with the columns tab and saved it as...

and I add a filter

Now it gives me the share code number with the total. We're making progress! Ha!

If I have one filter it'll give me the total for that code. If I put 2 filters it gives me no data, which I find weird. I'm just confused as to why it won't work.

I was reading the training manual for the advanced report design course curriculum and I was wondering, do you think by adding an excel formula expression in the container, would that help?

when you have 2 filters it defaults to "And". So if you have the 2 shrcode = 1, shrcode = 2 it will look for rows that have 1 AND 2.

like this:

you need to change it from "AND" to "OR".

Right Click on the 2nd filter and select Properties.

Check the Use "OR" Logic box and click OK.

See what that does.

It add both share code to give me one total.

Hmmmm?

So if you use 1 filter it works. i.e. filter = 1 shows the totals for 1 filter = 2 shows the totals for 2?

Correct. I only get one line with the total of both share code. I need to see two lines, one for filter 1 and one for filter 2.

How about making a Union Report?

Make a copy of the report.

One report has the filter = 1

The 2nd report has the filter equal 2.

Make a Union Report using the 2 as Sub Reports and have them both output to Sheet1 of the Union Report.

This should give you 2 rows one for 1 and another for 2.
