Category report

[R]

Hi

I am looking for the following

My Table name is: Orders
Fields
SL # (Auto number)
Date (Date/Time)
Client Name (Text)
Item-1-Value(numbers)
Item-2-Value(Numbers)
Item-3-Value(numbers)
Item-4-Value(Numbers)

I need a report to show the number of orders received in a given date range
in the following category
Category for each item. These categories are fixed
<=500,"USD 0 To 500"
<=1000,"USD 501 To 1,000"
<=2000,"USD 1,001 To 2,000"
<=4000,"USD 2,001 To 4,000"
<=10000,"USD 4,001 To 10,000"

=10001,"USD Over 10,001"

I’ve used a query to show this and I have used the following expression
Category: IIf([Item-1-Value]<=500,"USD 0 To
500",IIf([Item-1-Value]<=1000,"USD 501 To
1,000",IIf([Item-1-Value]<=2000,"USD 1,001 To
2,000",IIf([Item-1-Value]<=4000,"USD 2,001 To
4,000",IIf([Item-1-Value]<=10000,"USD 4,001 To
10,000",IIf([Item-1-Value]>=10001,"USD Over 10,001"))))))

Another problem in my query there zero values also available, because my
data is as follows
SL# Item-1 Item-2 Item-3
1 0 10 0
2 5 0 0
3 0 0 20

I need the number of orders > zero for all the items, I tried to give a
criteria in query grid, but it returned onl the records that are matching
each other. How can we do this report, please help

Rather than mess with embedded IIf() statements, create a Category table
with fields:
CategoryID Number
MinValue Currency

Enter records:
CategoryID MinValue
1 0
2 501
3 1001
etc

You can now create a query that uses DLookup() to get the CategoryID:
CategoryLookup("CategoryID", "Category", [Amount] >= & "[MinValue])
