| | Posted: | | | | I want to produce a report that groups by genre. But it doesn't appear there is any grouping available in the reports.
To give you a better idea of what i'm trying to do, i'll explain a little.
I'm trying to produce a report that lists movies in each genre seperately.
Say a movie has the genres of Action and Drama.
I want it to appear under Action but also appear under Drama.
I guess I'd have the Genre in the page header.
Currently the only way to do this (that i can see). is to produce a seperate report for each genre (as the page header would have to be hardcoded) and run them all.
I might even need to set the collection filter first before i ran each one, but there is probably a way to filter out everything but a particular genre.
Any ideas?
Or whats the best way to suggest a product improvement? |

| | Posted: | | | | I think you have the solution. Filter a genre, run a report. Unfortunately, the reporting tool does not do any filtering or sorting in and of itself. | | | | Kevin |

Not sure what you will see after that (as I am not a programmer), but I heard all required information can be found there. | | | Achim [諾亞信； Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan.

| | Posted: | | | | Thanks I'll do that.
I might explore doing something that can batch reports/filters or maybe even an xml/xslt transform... |
