Hello All,

I am sorting ages by two other field, and then counting how many people own certain policies at each age. Now I want to take it an extra step and use a range of these ages (such as 0-20, 21-40, 41-60, 61-80, 80 on up) and summerize how many are in the age group and how much that groups policies are worth.

I know I could probaly use where statments and make a bunch of reports, but I was hoping that there was something simpler.

Any Help

Have you considered creating a field called 'agerange' say, as an alphanumric field and then sort/sum/count on that field.

DEFINE AGERANGE/A15 = IF AGE GE 80 THEN '80 ON UP' ELSE IF AGE GE 61 THEN '61-80 ELSE IF AGE GE ....

Always start with the largest age and work down.
