Subject: Re: Crystal Reports - concatenating values
Hi Jeri,
I use Minimum, Maximum and NthLargest when I know I have a limited number of possibilities and want to change up the text between the values:
SourceMin Formula:
Minimum{Constituent.DISPLAYNAME}, {Objects.SORTNUMBER})
SourceMid Formula:
NthLargest(2,{Constituent.DISPLAYNAME}, {Objects.SORTNUMBER})
The "2" chooses the second occurrence
SourceMax Formula:
Maximum({Constituent.DISPLAYNAME}, {Objects.SORTNUMBER})
Print Source Formula:
If DistinctCount ({Constituent.CONSTITUENTID}, {Objects.SORTNUMBER}) = 1 then
{Constituent.DISPLAYNAME}
Else
If DistinctCount ({Constituent.CONSTITUENTID}, {Objects.SORTNUMBER}) = 2 then
{@Source Max} + " and " + {@Source Min}
Else
If DistinctCount ({Constituent.CONSTITUENTID}, {Objects.SORTNUMBER}) = 3 then
{@Source Max} + " , " + {@Source Mid} + " and " + {@Source Min}
I group by Object SortNumber and place my final formula in the Group Footer area.
Thanks,
Carole

NICE! Thanks, Ariana!

Ariana From: The Museum System (TMS) Users [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of French, Ariana Hi Jeri, Here's what I use for a similar purpose: In group header, use a formula (I call it "reset"): whileprintingrecords; stringvar x := ""; In details, use a formula (I call it "accumulate"): whileprintingrecords; stringvar x := x & {Constituents.DisplayName} & ", "; In group footer, use a formula (I call it "display"): whileprintingrecords; stringvar x; if length(x) > 2 then left(x,len(x)-2); and adjust the "-2" portion to whatever makes sense for your particular formatting needs to lop off the final comma. Hope this helps, Ariana From: The Museum System (TMS) Users [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Moxley, Jeri Hi All, To have all of the co-curators of an exhibition, or multiple artists of an artwork, appear in a Crystal Report as a single string: Name, Name, Name How would you do that? Thanks!
