RE: [U2] Cumulative Trouble in paradise
Not sure if this solution will work in UniData (but it does in Universe): Try writing an iType using this code: @2;Qty+@ eg: SORT FLAT.SHD BY Frame_Color BREAK.ON Frame_Color TOTAL Qty EVAL @2;Qty+@ The @2 means use the 2nd value defined in the iType, but because the 2nd value hasn't been evaluated yet, it uses the 2nd value from the previous iteration (ie. The running total). Adrian -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Allen E.

RE: [U2] Cumulative Trouble in paradise
Hi Adrian, Guess it just works in Universe! I have no problem with using the select then the list. I had to move the code from a report generator source to hand written 'cus the report generator tries to do it all in one pass. But that's ok, since I had to do that anyway 'cus the standard report was doing the BY.EXP thang, and I had to write a small program to flatten it first so the cumulative thing would work. So I had to remove it from the report generator anyway so I could add the program to the proc and it won't disappear if someone rebuilds the library. Man, all this work for one little field.
