    Selecting Top AND Bottom values

    Hi all! I have a tough problem I was hoping I could get some help with: I would like to create a recordset based on the "middle" 50% of the data. I need to chop 25% off the top of the data, AND 25% off the bottom of the data. Any ideas?

    filtering records in a report

    Try using a crosstab query. Setup with "DepartmentId" as the column heading, "DocumentTitle" as the Row Heading, and "Date" as the Value. I can't really tell exactly what information you want to display in the query, but this should point you in the right direction.

I'm counting yes/no data fields in the main report (Totals Query in the data source), then summing them in the grouping footers. Adding the criteria fields I...

    Logic on Percent format????

    Percentage values should be specified using a single or double data format: ie. 5.00% is actually stored as 0.0500, and 78.33% is actually stored as 0.7833. This is done this way to lend functionality to calculated fields. For example, if you want to calculate a given employees percentage of...
