Hi All,

I have created one classic report and I want to calculate SUM of the column based on some conditions like:

only records which started as 'ASB%' only that records should consider as in SUM value.

Please help me out ?

Thanks
Xandot

I believe that you should switch to an Interactive Report. It does such things easily, with no programming at all. You'd just filter records you're interested in and summary value would reflect the new data set's values.

Doing the same in a Classic Report is - as far as I can tell - difficult as you'd have to do everything manually (i.e. write some code which would do the job). Note that your own "summary function" might get rather complex as it requires you to take care about report's current WHERE clause (does it depend on some parameters already?), pay attention to filter you'd apply (is it 'ASB%' every time? Will you filter only one column or many of them?) etc.

Shortly, I'm not sure that the final result is worth such an effort, knowing that there's an alternative - Interactive Report.
