Insert a Group with the Group Wizard

The easiest way to insert Report groups is to use the Group Wizard.

  • Click Insert Group on the Insert – Optionmenu.

  • Select the field to group on and optionally select fields to add as a Group Footer total.

Note: DBxtra will only show numeric fields to add totals.

Insert Groups manually

  • To insert a group manually right click in the Report design area and select Insert Band – Group Header .

If you choose to add groups manually then you need to repeat this process for each Report Group Header and Footer.

  • Insert the group Field into the GroupHeader .

Tip! Manually inserting groups does not offer you the option to add Group totals.

  • You can insert or edit group totals manually by adding a field and defining the fields Summary properties.
