Is anyone else not able to get the other function to work when using the GUI?

It displays all of the records and does not lump them into an other line. I am very confused on why this does not work. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Kerry

PLUS OTHERS is a reporting language enhancement and most likely has not reached the GUI.

Because you have 2 BY columns AFTER the PLUS OTHERS row:

BY SUPPLIERID
BY SUPPLIERNAME

Take out the 2 BY's, it then works like it should...
