[CLOSED] Search or Sorting data from different columns.
I have a question for a report which I cannot figure out. I have a table with columns (Title, vm1, vm2, vm3) holding account numbers. A company can have one or more accounts and account numbers can be listed in one or all the 3 columns. How can I display the fields where an account has been listed?
Example Title vm1 vm2 vm3 MD 10 15 25 BOA 25 20 . Citi . 33 10
If I select account 10, I need a return of all complany titles and columns where that account has been listed. Which should be MD and Citi.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Kerry,

With "If I select account 10 ...", do you mean you have a drilldown on that column??
If yes, in the fex that's is executed by the drilldown, you could do something like: (let's say &ACNUM = 10)
.... WHERE vm1 EQ &ACNUM OR vm2 EQ &ACNUM OR vm3 EQ &ACNUM ; ....

Yes, I have a dynamic list dilldown on vm1 (column), T2 = tablename, vm1 = column name, ACNUM = Data or account #( since it is a dynamic list, the ACNUM will be selected from the dropdown list pointing to column - vm1 e.g WHERE (T2.T2.vm1 EQ &vm1.(OR(FIND vm1, T2. T2. vm1 IN T2)). vm1. ) WHERE vm1 EQ &ACNUM OR vm2 EQ &ACNUM OR vm3 EQ &ACNUM ;
I have tried what you wrote but it gives me only records from vm1
