I have 3 group by sections in the report. It has lot of formulae and running totals based on 3 group by sections. I want to add 2 more new groups to this report. I dont want the existing ones to get disturbed. what is the easiest way of doing this with least effort.Thanks

I don't use running totals, I do the same work in formulae.  Adding additional groups doesn't disturb the existing values, you might have to take the new groups into account for the formulae, but in general, I have found they aren't distrupted...they just follow hilfy's tag line....the report does what it was told to do, not what you thought you told it to do.

Modifying any existing report, especially complex ones is a pain...but so it maintaining them :)
