I need to create a found set report the tricky part to me is. I cant create a script or calculation because well im not that advanced.(my reports come out endless)

My problem is i have fields 1-10, On some records there is text in field 1, and none in the others.

on some records there is text in field 5 and none in the others.

On other records 1-10 are filled in. i need to create a report but only pull from the fields that have text in them!

any help would be much appreciated!

thank you for taking the time to review this!

Look into using merge fields on your layout, especially if your 10 fields are stacked one below the other. Also, check out the layout mode Format>Set Sliding/Printing options.

btw, your data structure sounds a bit fishy, given all the "holes" you are describing in the data.

What do you mean? Fishy how would you correct it? I honestly think the books i have been reading confuse me more than help!

Thank you so much for that input i will be trying it out later!
