Solved: Access: group by field in a report

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a report based on a small database of info imported from Excel. What I want to do is have the report totalled by month. I created a new field for the main table with an update query that added just the month name (don't know if I need that to total by month or not, there is a date field as well). I've uploaded the database to give a better example.

What I want to end up with is a report that shows a Monthly total for each Source in the database. There are five sources, so this should be 60 different totals. There is a field in the database called 'galTKN', this value should appear in that summary as well. The value will not change and is the same for every record. I was debating creating an extra table for this, but it could change in the future.

Let me know if you need any other information. TIA.

 

Bump.

 

Wow, lol. Sorry nobody's posted on this yet Zack. I've been off the boards, I'll have a look at it.

Hehe, or maybe I won't. Any chance of getting that in a 2000 version? Or is there unconvertable code (though I doubt the code should matter)?

Actually, with the help of pbaldy I got it...

Code:

SELECT Format([galDate],"mmm yyyy") AS TheMonth, tblGallons.galSource, Sum(tblGallons.galTKN) AS SumOfgalTKN, Sum(tblGallons.galGallons) AS SumOfgalGallons
FROM tblGallons
GROUP BY Format([galDate],"mmm yyyy"), tblGallons.galSource, Format([galdate],"yyyymm")
ORDER BY Format([galdate],"yyyymm");
