Hello,
 
Quick question. Im struggling here.
 
I have a simple report to show the yearly quarters sales by CUSTOMER.
 
amongst our customers, we have different BRAND DEALERS for different brands.
 
These dealers are identified in our database by a boolean field.
 
there are only 5 different types of brand dealers giving me 5 boolean fields.
 
{KUcheck}
{FAcheck}
{GEcheck}
{TOcheck}
{GTcheck}
 
I have these parameters in my report;
 
PERIOD
 
YEAR
 
BRAND
 
 
What I want to do is, if the brand parameter selected by the user, is say "KU" , then I want to have my customers group only show customers who have {KUcheck}=TRUE,
 
and so on for the other 5 brands.
 
I have tried to enter this formula into the Select Expert under the GROUP selection part:
 
IF {?brand}="KU" THEN {Table.KUcheck}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="FA" THEN  {Table.FAcheck}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="GE" THEN {Table.GEcheck}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="GT" THEN {Table.GTcheck}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="TO" THEN {Table.TOcheck}=TRUE
 
 
But this is not working. It is returning ALL customers.
 
 
Can anyone advise please?
 
 
Thanks in Advance,
 
mike.

{TABLE.YEAR} = {?Year} and
{TABLE.MANUFCTR} = {?Brand} and
(IF {?brand}="KU" THEN {TABLE.KUCHECK}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="FA" THEN {TABLE.FACHECK}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="GE" THEN {TABLE.GECHECK}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="GT" THEN {TABLE.GTCHECK}=TRUE ELSE
IF {?brand}="TO" THEN {TABLE.TOCHECK}=TRUE ELSE
FALSE)
 
 
Sorted it. I put the above forumla in the record selection expert and it works just how I need it to.
