User Defined Group dialog

This dialog appears when you select Special Group from the Sort column in the Group screen of the banded/table wizard or Map Binding Data Wizard, or click the Special Group button in the Display screen of the chart wizard. It helps you to define how to group your information. See the dialog.

The following are details about options in the dialog:

Group Name

Specifies the name for the grouping criterion.

If you use this dialog to group data in the dataset that is bound with a map, the group name here should match with data in the specified group by field.

Operator

Specifies the operator with which to compose the grouping criterion.

There are many operators with which you can define how your data will be grouped. You can define as: between, not between. > (greater than), < (less than), = (equal to), <= (less than or equal to), >= (greater than or equal to), or != (not equal to).

Operand

Either op1 or both op1 and op2 will be seen in the Operand column. Type the criteria with quotation marks here.

Keep values outside of the range in special group

If checked, JReport will put the values that are not included in the specified criteria in a new special group.
