Grouping in report builder or linking reports












0















Can someone help me with one of my reports?
I am using Microsoft SQL Server Report Builder but also have access to Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 on wards.



I will use example fields to describe;



I have a set of fields; Client Number, Client Name, Alert1, Alert2, .... , Alert9.



I would like the following grouping;



Alert 1
Client Number | Client Name |
Client Number | Client Name |
Client Number | Client Name |
Alert 2
Client Number | Client Name |
Client Number | Client Name |
Client Number | Client Name |


The problem I'm having is that because Alerts 1-9 are individual fields, it doesn't allow me to group like the example above.



Does anyone know of a way to do this? Is there a way to make combine the alert fields?



Alternatively, is there a way to create a report that can house 9 separate reports via a drop down as follows;



Report: Alerts



Dropdown: Alert 1, Alert 2, ..... , Alert 9



If you clicked Alert 1 it would load the following



Alert 1
Client Number | Client Name |
Client Number | Client Name |
Client Number | Client Name |
