basic theory about grouping in report

julkifli33

hi all.... i usually make report using wizard
after that i modified the report

all i want to know is basic theory how to grouping manually

for example i made report using table Sales Invoice Header
can anyone explain about these codes
thanks

1. Sales Invoice Header - OnPreDataItem()
LastFieldNo := FIELDNO("No.");

2. Sales Invoice Header, GroupHeader (3) - OnPreSection()
CurrReport.SHOWOUTPUT := FooterPrinted;
FooterPrinted := FALSE;

3. Sales Invoice Header, GroupHeader (4) - OnPreSection()
CurrReport.SHOWOUTPUT :=
CurrReport.TOTALSCAUSEDBY = "Sales Invoice Header".FIELDNO("No.");

4. Sales Invoice Header, GroupHeader (5) - OnPreSection()
CurrReport.SHOWOUTPUT :=
CurrReport.TOTALSCAUSEDBY = LastFieldNo;

5. Sales Invoice Header, GroupFooter (7) - OnPreSection()
IF NOT FooterPrinted THEN
LastFieldNo := CurrReport.TOTALSCAUSEDBY;
CurrReport.SHOWOUTPUT := NOT FooterPrinted;
FooterPrinted := TRUE;

Instead of writing this post you should have invested the time into looking up SHOWOUTPUT and TOTALSCAUSEDBY in NAV online help.
I suggest you read the ADG before diving into programming NAV.

Did it occur to you that beginning NAV developers might not know what ADG is, and where it's located?

Oh, you mean like sitting behind the wheel of a car without reading the manual first or having a license?

No, it didn't.

But in this case rhpnt you were rigth, but you could share more.
OP you should read ADG (aplication designer guide), this is pdf file located on navision instalation disc somewere ...\Navision\5sp1_SI\DVD_Signed\Doc\
The file is called w1w1adg.pdf, and on the page 242 you should find what you are looking for.

And just for the record the real man never reads a car manual. I have never ever read a car manual. That's like asking someone for directions when you are lost, you can't do that.

You two might want to take your differences off line...or at least through PMs. There's really no place for it here.

O.k but before I end I just have to make clear that this statement:

Was meant like a joke and I forgot to put LoL at the end, my bad.
