How can i sort by group1 value without effecting group2 value and vise versa

Question

I am new to crystal report. I have a temp-table through which i am displaying values in crystal report. Depending up on the one temp-table value i want to group the records. for example

tt-record.sortby = "Taxcode"

then all the records has to group by taxcode, if

tt-record.sortby = "countrycode"

then record has to group by countrycode like that i have three conditions. i tried it by inserting group for different condition and suppressing the remaining groups example i define group1 for taxcode and group2 for countrycode, when

tt-record.sortby = "Taxcode"

then i am suppressing the group2 which is for countrycode. But in the preview of the report the records are sorting taxcode followed by countrycode, i dont want countrycode grouping when i am grouping by taxcode.

How can i sort by group1 without effecting group2 value and vise versa. Can you please help me . Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Your approach is wrong.. Create only one group and in that group write below formula.

If tt-record.sortby 
Then "Tax code filed here"
else if tt-record.sortby = "countrycode
Then "Country code field here"

now use above formula in the grouping.
