I can;t believe in all of the years I have been using FMP that I have never had this need, but I fianlly do and now, I don;t know if it can be done, or how to do it.

Can I display on one report, the result of multiple searches?

What I need to be able to do is show how many times an employeed did "X" activity over a period of time. Then I would like to display results in a format that shows yearly totals, monthly totals, and weekly totals.

This is easy to do across several automated reports, but I don;t have any idea how to do it in one report.

Thanks for any thoughts or ideas in aadvance.

Steve:

Sure. The simplest way is to do one Find with multiple requests (which work as "or" finds), thus bundling a bunch of Finds into one. Another way would be to set up a Report Flag field, which would get set after each time you do one of your searches. Then you can find for the Report Flag & build a report from that (remembering to reset the flag for that found set after the report is done.

Do you know of any examples I might look to, or samples files anyone has posted? I've never had to build a report with bundled searches or flags as you have indicated.

Sorry to be a pest,

Steve
