Topic: combine multiple values into one new name Posted: 08 Nov 2012 at 4:26pm
I'm looking for some assistance in combining multiple values to display with a new name of my choosing. for example: Values are MC - test MC - release MC - Production and i want to display this group as "Main Campus".
This is only my second week using Crystal and appreciate any pointers!

When you said, combining multiple value, means do you like to concatenate multiple fields to show as one field/column? What do you mean by group here? Please explain a bit more..

Let me rephrase. I would like to group everything that starts with "MC" into a single group named "Main Campus". I am looking to do a total count by campus instead of per workstation location.

Report -> GroupExpert-> Add Field which you wanted to Group->Options-> Options Right Tab->Check Customize group name Field-> check Radio Button (Use Formula as Group Name)->Click [X-2] ->Write formula similar to: IF {field} STARTSWITH "MC" THEN 'Main Campus' ELSE {field} Then Count accordingly. If this is not the case, you have to create a formula similar to the above and group by on that formula and count Group By.
