All,
In crystal (v.9) I created a report that has two grouping of information.  It first groups by type and then iod_hifi as you can see below:
 
Example:

  Acct           Typ         IOD_HIFI         BL_DDA

   915
1506877      117            915                  14451.45
1500672      117            915                  35178.92
                                                              49630.37
 
    918
1500923      117            918                  29482.83
1500888      117            918                  88209.64
1500842      117            918                  79344.00
                                                             197036.47
    
 
I need to add a fifth column for title and/or labels.   Say Column heading= Rate Details - 1.0%, 2.0%,  3.0%, etc. The labels are not in the database.  I know I can use the formula “If (IOD_HIFI = 915) and (type=117) then “Rate 1.0%” else 0, but I need to do this with each different grouping and there are about 347 of them.  I was reading up on using an array, I'm not 100% certain if this is the way to go?  I desperately need help!!

I think you are will need to create some form of a formula. It appears you have three percentages, so you may be able to get by separating your 347 categories into the three rates.

The better solution is if there is something else in the database besides that single number that sets the applicable percentage. It seems this would be the case or the percentage would be something that exists outside the database and would be prone to user error.

I did create this formula:  but it only works on the specific criteria 

 

If (IOD_HIFI = 915) and (type=117) then “Rate 1.0%” else 0,

 

I need to have it on about 300 lines with different criterias and I have more than three rates.  The rates do not necessarily need to have the percentage sign with it.

In  Looking at your formula  what tells you this needs the Rate be 1%. Is there a list or is it a type? My point is this there is way you know what percent goes with what type and code.  Hopefully it is something we can take to convert to a formula for example something like this.

If {code) in (915,978,873) and {type} = "117" then Rate = 1%
else 0
