Mark,

I've read a little about the code on a report, but have never done it.  I 
agree creating a summary table will give me much more options.  I create a 
query like this:

Query
ANSWER: :PRIV:Summary.DB

Atthistory.db | MemberID   | AbPr   |
                      | calc count   | Check |

EndQuery


this gives me a table with:

     |   AbPr | Count of MemberID  |
1   |    A     | 14                              |
2   |    P     |   5                              |

I add the summary.db to the report data model, and the only way I see to add 
this information is to add another tableframe

Am I heading in the right direciton?

Thanks
Kevin

Kevin:
Are you doing this in a calculated field or with code?
In reports things are interpreted from left to right, top to bottom on
the physical report itself.  So given two fields almost on top of each
other, but one 1 pixel above the other, the field on pixel above
calculates first.
You can do this type of calculation in a report by adding code to a
report if you are familiar with that.
It may be easier to do your calculations before opening the report and
have the report on a summary table that displays what you want.
Otherwise to help we need more information.  What is the table structure
and how is it displayed in the report?
