Hi, I know it might be a silly question but I really don't know how to figure it out. In Crystal reports let's say I have the following information:

statename          amount

AA    100

BB   2000

CC    12

DD   500

I want to display at top just the maximum value and its statename besides it

let say itshould be just

2000 BB

But i don't know how to do it, I mean I know howto display the value of 2000 using Maximum, but how to show its correspondant statename?

Hi use this,

right click on state name field and amount field and use conditional suppression logic.

if (table.amount)=maximum((table.amount)) then true else false

Hi Sorry,

Use this it will work.

1.Create a formula for state and place it detail section.

If {Account.Amount} = Maximum ({Account.Amount}) Then {Account.state}

2.Drag amount field into detail section and Right click on amount field->suppress->x-2->write this formula

If {Account.Amount} <>Maximum ({Account.Amount}) then true else false.

here account is your table name

Hope this helps u

Hi Erika,

if the values are in Detail section then you just right click on grey are of detail section --> Select 'Section expert' --> Click on "suppress" condition formula --> place the below formula there...

if {amount} = Maximum ({amount}) then false else true

Click ok and check the report.

Hope this information will help you...
