I am looking for a function that will pull the week of the year outside of any date in the table. I want to group from the week and then my order_date will fall into the correct week buckets. Does that make sense?
 
Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, that would work if I used my order_date, but I am trying to compare 2007 $ to 2006 $ and when I group it by the week function that pulls from the order date and it will not bring comparative results because of the year in the order date. So I want the week function to work independent of any date field. Is there such a thing?
 
and it will not bring comparative results because of the year in the order date."

So link by the week.

Actually that is very interesting. How do I link by the week?
 
If you insert a group on:

datepart("ww",{table.date})

...you can then add conditional formulas like this:

if Year({table.date}) = 2007 then {table.amt}

Repeat for 2006. Add these to the detail section, and then insert summaries on them at the weekgroup level, and then suppress the detail section.
