Title
Limiting Sub Summary Reports
Post
I am relatively new to FileMaker Pro. I am using FM 11.
I want to limit a Sub Summary Report to only a portion of my DB. The report I have written works fine - for one month. I expected to be able to limit the report using a simple "Find" command to create a "found set" of my data. Instead, when I add a second month's worth of data the Sub Summary Report creates a report for both months regardless of how much I try to limit it.
I understand I can add another Sub Summary part to break out the months... but is there an easy way to limit what the Sub Summary Report is "summarizing"?
Yes. You can use a find to find only records dated with the desired month and then sort your records (to make the sub summary part visible). I know you say that it didn't work, but it will indeed work. Please describe in detail how performing a find failed for you and we'll try to help you figure that part out.
