I need to sort on a Sub total field. Eg We have a shortage column and after doing Sub total i am getting Total potential Shortage. Sorting needs to be done on the Total Potentail shortage Amount.

It will all becomes so much clearer to us if you provide us with an example of what you're looking for, along with the code you already have developed to get there. The description you provided is not really clear enough.

Thanks GamP... I couldn't have said it better myself...

Wasi: Can you examplify it with the CAR file?

I want the sub total(total car) to be sorted by highest.

Eg: CAR BMW has the highest Total Sales by CAR and this needs to be first.

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
SALES
SEATS
BY CAR
ON CAR SUB-TOTAL SALES SEATS AS 'TOTAL CAR'
END

Prarie, Doug;

Not so fast. Adding the BY TOTAL HIGHEST statement only will sort the report based on the individual values of SALES, not the SUBTOTAL value of SALES. You need to do a bit more work.

Try this example:

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SALES NOPRINT
BY TOTAL HIGHEST SALES NOPRINT
BY CAR
PRINT SALES SEATS
BY TOTAL HIGHEST SALES NOPRINT
BY CAR
BY MODEL
BY BODYTYPE
ON CAR SUBTOTAL SALES SEATS AS 'TOTAL CAR'
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF, SQUEEZE=ON,$
TYPE=SUBTOTAL, BACKCOLOR=ORANGE,$
ENDSTYLE
END


Thanks!

Here's another interesting approach to the issue:

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT SUM.SALES WITHIN CAR NOPRINT SALES SEATS
COMPUTE SUMSALES/D12=C1; NOPRINT
BY TOTAL HIGHEST SUMSALES NOPRINT
BY CAR
BY MODEL
BY BODYTYPE
ON CAR SUBTOTAL SALES SEATS AS 'TOTAL CAR'
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF, SQUEEZE=ON,$
TYPE=SUBTOTAL, BACKCOLOR=ORANGE,$
ENDSTYLE
END


Thanks!

Wasi,

Here is a link to the post that explains how to change the thread description to have [SOLVED] in the description.

http://forums.informationbuild...1057331/m/8871069592

"To add this keyword to the subject title the member who began the thread should go to the very first post that they started the thread with and then edit it. The subject title may only be changed by editing the very first post in the thread."


Thanks!
