You would Group on your field called "clientname";
 
Insert a Summary in the Group Footer based on your field "value" and summarize on "sum" with your Summary Location being your Group (see dropdowns for all these choices);
 
Format the field "clientname" to "suppress if duplicated" so that only the first instance of "clientname" appears.

hi all,
 i like really what dfolzenlogen said, but there's no "sum" option in calculate this summary. all i can see is max, min,count,distinct count,mode, nth largest, nth smallest,nth most frequent.
is there any other simple way.
thnx

Are you trying to sum your text field?  Make sure that you are referring to your value field which should be numeric.  The choices you are given in the "option to calculate" depends on the field type.  Let me know if that works.

i pass a value for "share_amount" from a datasource to dataset1.xsd.
 
"share_amount" aka "value" is actually from a dataset1.xsd
i change its property to system.decimal.
 
in my stored proc.
i set cast(sha_amount as numeric(8,2))  as share_amount

finally i got the answer, just want to share it to everyone.
 
i create formula fields named "sum_amount". then  i put this code.
 
if isnull({GetSaleDetails.SHA_AMOUNT}) then 0
else cdbl({GetSaleDetails.SHA_AMOUNT})
 
then i go back to summarize get the "sum_amount"
then select "sum" in calculate option. :D
 
dfolzenlogen is right again. options to calculate depends on the field type. so if field is string you cant see "sum" option.
