Hello,

My first post to this group and I apologize if this is an elementary question or has been answered somewhere else and I just did not find it.

Basically I am looking for a way, either a selection formula or a field formula, to tell the report that if this one specific field is 0 or null then don't show up in the report.  I only want data in my report that have values in this one field.

I am working with an inventory list of items.  The report works great, but there are a couple of lines of blank data and I am not sure where they are coming from, but I don't want them there.  I don't have access and our IT department sucks to deal with this from the SQL server side of things, so I figured it would be possible to delete them through a formula, but that is what I can now not figure out.

Any help will be appreciated for this probably elementary and Crystal Reports 101 question.

Andy

I think what you want to use is the record select.
You can add conditions there to exclude rows from your data set.

Great suggestion and I think it worked.

I added a record sort where for a particular field if value is greater than 0.

This wiped off the data I did not want to be in the report and all my other data appears to still be there and my summary count worked as well.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Andy
