Formulas/Functions?

[jconway]

I have a set of data in groups. In each group I have an acct #, date,
and text - grouped by date. Each group has x number of lines where x
varies. In the group footer, I want to concatenate all the text from
each line. I'm having trouble because of the carying number of items
in each group. Any help on how to go about doing this would be greatly
appreciated! Thanks!!!

You would use three formulas:

//{@reset} to be placed in the group header:
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar x;
if not inrepeatedgroupheader then
x := "";

//{@accum} to be placed in the detail section:
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar x := x + {table.textfield}+ ", ";//not sure whether you want
//to separate the text--I added a comma here

//{@display} to be placed in the group footer:
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar x;
left(x, len(x)-2);
