Hi,
i want to create a Hierarchy report. the requirement is :-
I need to find out who is the VP for any employee.

For every emplyee we have employee class which corresponds to a certain position.
in all we have 5 different clases.
Eg.
EMP1 is at class A and reports to EMP2
EMP2 is at class B and reprots to EMP3
EMP3 is at class C and reports to EMP4
EMP4 is at class D and is a VP
so my o/p shoud be
EMP1's VP is EMP4
I have a column in my TBL which tell me who that EMP is reporting to(reporting manager).

one way i thought was to capture all the employee ID's and read it one by one in a loop till i dont hit VP, but its not working. any ideas how can i do this.

Look up recursive join on advanced search. This technique is not for the faint of heart and you'll need to know how many levels you have.

I would use the power of FML for this.
Create a master with parent and child fields
There are several items here on FP that explain you how this can be done.
