Crystal Reports: Group Expert

The Group Expert is a quick way to see what fields you are using for groups in your report. It also provides an easy way to shuffle the groups around into the sequence you require. One feature we like (in CR9 and above) is you can "undo” after you have used “delete group.”

Steve Dowse from Business Objects in Sydney reminded us that (with Crystal Reports 9.0 and above) you can group on the same field more than once. This lets you use a field for specified order and then within that group you can group by individual values of the fields. Earlier version users need to create a formula that uses the group field. You then could group on the formula.
