I still haven't heard a satifactory solution to this problem. Crystal 8 is out now...maybe it can do it, but I wouldn't know.

I'm afraid I may have oversimplified my example.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm trying to explain what I need without including all of the irrelevant details of my particlular report and I probably haven't provided an accurate representation.<br><br>Let me explain further.&nbsp;&nbsp;The grouping is, in fact...

I have a problem with sorting and grouping.&nbsp;&nbsp;I have a report with a group defined.&nbsp;&nbsp;Consider that there are two different fields I would like to sort by.&nbsp;&nbsp;One is a unique text string, lets call it &quot;Name.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;The other is not unique and is a number...

Sweet.&nbsp;&nbsp;I haven't tested that yet, but if it works it's as good a solution as the next.&nbsp;&nbsp;I didn't know you could provide the &quot;evaluateafter&quot; statement with a parameter like that.<br><br>Thanks for the excellent idea.

The suppression doesn't recognize the &quot;RecordCount&quot; variable that you refer to (I get &quot;The remaining text does not appear to be part of the formula&quot; and similar error messages)...this doesn't appear to be defined.&nbsp;&nbsp;I cannot find any special &quot;RecordCount&quot...

Good suggestion.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, I tried that, too.&nbsp;&nbsp;For it to work, I'd need something like this:<br><br>BeforeReadingRecords;<br>0;<br>WhileReadingRecords;<br>Count({MyField});<br><br>And this doesn't appear to work...I suspect you can only use one of the 'evaluation time...

Thanks for the suggestion Malcolm, but is there some special RecordCount function/param available that I don't know about?&nbsp;&nbsp;I've looked through the help, but I don't see anything that does that...but then, I'm new to it.<br><br>My problem seems to be that I can't get the record count...

I have a Running Total defined that counts distinctively the number of items in a certain field.&nbsp;&nbsp;This works fine when there are records in the database (I'm using a simple .MDB file).&nbsp;&nbsp;When there are no records, it displays nothing, but what I need is for it to display a...
