I have a field in a cross tab which is the summary total of another field, i want to sort on this field but cannot see how.

Basically the field just outputs a word and the summary counts how many occurances of the word there are and presents it as a number.

See pic below to see how it appears. I want to be able to sort by the right hand number which is the summary of the cross tab

The 2nd pic shows the setup of the cross tab. Is it possible to sort on the summarised field as opposed to the others?

Thanks
 
Select the crosstab and then go to report->topN/group sort and select "count of {table.description}".

Actually you were right, i wasn't using the TOP N function right!

Thanks!
