Displaying Totals in matrix-control based upon a RunningValue-expression

Hi,
I have a Matrix-control which has to "summarize" a lot of data in the end,
based upon boolean values. (the column-grouping is a static group).
Customer1
Test1 0 1 0 Value 1
Test 1.1 Value 2
Test 1.2 Value 3
Test 2 1 0 1 Value 4
Test 2.1 Value 5
Test 3 0 1 0 Value 6
______________________________________
Totals: 1 2 1
Customer 2
Test 1 ...
The values are bool-values AND not always displayed. I want to summarize
the values as they appear on the screen, not how they are in the dataset.
Because, now the runningValues-function always summarizes to much, which is
also al the "invisible" data between the main groups. I have written
something to display 0 in the subgroups, but it doesn't change my result.
Is it possible to do this and, if so, how?
Thanks a lot for your answers!

I am!
Problem is that the Scope doesn't seem to work correctly: it refers to the
dataset in stead of the matrix itself.
I have tried something like this:
=RunningValue(Abs(cInt(Fields!PlannedChecked.Value)),Sum,"matrix1_SubGroup")
I again refer to the fact that Fields!PlannedChecked.Value is a boolean
value and that he doesn't seem to summarize the values as in the control,
but in the dataset. He doesn't summarize correctly.
The runningValue function was inserted with an IIF -statement in combination
with the InScope-function to determine whether I'm actually in a
summarize-column.
A count would also do the job, but how to do that if I can't put a
limitation on the scope?
A dSum would do the trick, but that isn't supported.
I'm really stuck on this one, but as long as someone hasn't officially told
me how the RunningValue-function works exactly in a matrix-control, I keep
searching for a solution and reason.

Display only the latest two consecutive years?

Hi all,

I have a Matrix with several static rows of financial information with a column group that groups the information by date:
01.02.04 12.09.03
Dividend 455,789 346,098
Profit 100,787 264,687
Deposits 89,078 76,003
Currently I have a filter on the column group that limits the information to the top two dates (Fields!dateField.Value Top N =2). What I also need is to filer the data so that only consecutive years are displayed. I have tried the filter (Year(Fields!dateField.Value) >= Year(Max(Fields!dateField.Value)) - 1), but this doesn't stop non-consecutive years being added to the Matrix. What am I missing here?
Any help you have to offer is much appreciated!
Thank you,
Stephen.

stephen,

i think that this task seems to be "database work" - just evoke the needed data by an appropriate sql-statement.

Thank you for your reply.

Is there any way that I can do this without altering the underlying dataset? Unfortunately, the query already returns all of the data that is required and nothing more, so limiting any of the data there would cause problems elsewhere in the report.

Stephen.

|||How about creating a second dataset with a modified query to get only the data you need. So then you have one dataset with all the dataand one with the last two years.|||That's a good idea! I will have a play around with it and will let you know how I get on.

Thanks!

That seems to have done the trick!

Thanks!

Stephen.
