Hi, i have to produce some lists from a database ranked on number fields - like the number of branches a retailer has.

if I put in '@@' on the layout, it will give them a ranking number, but I need to have them ranked equal if two or more have the same number of branches, like

19

20

21

21=

22

etc

Is there a way i can do this?

regards, jeff

@@ will only give you the record number in the current found set and sort order.

see attached file for a script

rank.zip

Hi, thanks for that file, It's a really neat piece of work and does just what I want

if it might be of help to someone else, I played around and added another field that puts in an "=" sign for the equal rankings, like:

1

2

2=

3

4

4=

4=

etc. here's the amended test database, but aplogies for my crummy scripting!

thanks again, Jeff
