Yup! Give me a day or two to try and get it working. Thanks again.

lbass, I trying for: By date By City By Outage duration (less than 30 mins) By Outage.duration (greater than/equal to 30 mins) Outage.duration is a timespan (String) Here's the first two of 18 lines of formula to deal with time: If (mid({outage.duration},3,3)) = "day" and...

You are correct. It is a time field. What I would like to accomplish is to take if {table.city} in [xxx, xxx, xxx] then "Miami" and add something like: and outage.duration<'00:30:00' and outage.duration>='00:30:00' to subdivide channels within a city (XXX, XXX, XXX)into one of two or three...

Lbass, Can I use a similar statement to add another delimiter. For example: if {table.city} in ["Boston", "Bangor","Hartford"]and if {outage.duration<'00:00:30'} then "NorthEast" else

lbass, I think your right. With a continuous series of if, then clauses, I should be able to break down my group. With 114 it will take a little time to input, but once I have it, I'm done - it'll be easy to update. I'll give it a try and see if that solves my problem. Thanks for deciphering...

The specific information is of a confidential nature. It comes from an ODBC database. The field is chanout.channel. I would like to subdivide that field using a formula of sorts, something similar to SQL where I can stipulate a selection (similar to sort function in Crystal) where...

I currently have a report which pulls data from a select field named chanout.channel where the selection "is one of" grabs info on 500+ entries. Since I have no other sort function from which to select, I'm assuming I can write a formulas to further define this group. Out of that 500+ channels...

Thanks. Skip. Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Too much work activity to implement change. Now it's 2004 and I'm streamlining.

Skip, anyone. Will what you discussed here help me format a cell so that I can type: 102530 and have the cell display as 10:25:30. I would also need to make sure is can deal with time durations, not time clock. For example, 1235010 to represent 123:50:10 or 123 hrs, 50 mins, 10 secs.

Thank you. Working like a charm.

It's displaying, however when I try to save formula it wasn't recognizing everything after &quot;to&quot;. So I deleted. What I ended up with in the display for April 1-30 was 4/1/20034/30/2003. Obviously no break between min and max.

I know it's simple, but I can't seem to get my date parameter field to display in my report. I created a parameter for users to pull record selection based on a date range. But I can't seem to get the dates selected to display on the report. I've placed the field object in every conceivable...

I apologize to all for my misunderstandings. I did talk with xhelp on the phone this morning and he was able to clarify and complete a workable formula which includes the message you've been trying to get across. We applied the following: =(AH11*24*60/43200-1)*100. This seems to be working...

Idol, I'm not dividing by number of days in a month, but the number of minutes.

Zathras, I definitely run into the 24 hour delemma. Messaging the formulas works but doesn't help for this reason. I have fifty spreadsheets with anywhere from 10 to 25 entries. Each of those entries can vary greatly. One month line three may exceed 24 hour, the next month it may be zero. If I...
