     Posted: 24 May 2012 at 3:20am
Hi everyone!
First time post, love the site.....
 
So this is probably something very easy and I am overthinking it....
 
Im trying to build a report that selects the following records:
For example - I have one field that I'm trying to select with certain criteria and if it meets that certain criteria show me the other records...
 
Ex.
[STORE]        [TOYS]
Target           Cars
Target           Trucks
Kmart            Airplanes
Kmart            Trucks
 
So for this report - I want to show those stores with at least Cars and if you have cars show me what else you have....so my results should be
 
Target          Cars
Target           Trucks
 
Can anyone help me??  THANKS!!!Smile

you can do this with a inner join in a command or view or stored proc with an and statment on the join
or
in crystal you can use the group select option
group on store
create a formula feild to 'flag' your car rows
If table.toy='cars' then 1
sum the flag at the group level of store
sum(@flag,table.store)
and group with a sum>0 has a car so you use that in the select expert set to group criteria
sum(@flag,table.store)>0

Get Brian's book from this site (I do not work for this site or get any thing from it).

Read as many posts as you can and try to replicate the problems and solutions.
