Question: I am trying to create a report with a list of books in my library that have Biography in any of the subject fields. I want it to include Title, Author, Category, Call Number. Ideally I'd like it sorted by Category and then if possible, by Call number. When I go to define the report I do not see the Call number as a field I can add. I also am confused by the different views. Why are the field headings different depending on whether you select Display Each Copy or not? I always want the CALL number to show, but I only can see it over the right hand window not the main window view. There must be a way to do this?
Answer:
Use Advanced Search to display only reference books. Click on Print Report and select New Report.
Question:
I'd like to print a report of all the books in the Reference Category sorted by Call Number.
How do I do that? I can see that I can sort records by the first few fields that show on the screen
by clicking on the column heading, but since the Category field is deeper than that I
can't figure out how to do it. Is it possible?
Answer:
You will find a small "Sort" button in front of the View dropdown box,
located below the Report dropdown box. Click on the Sort button,
and set the primary order by CATEGORY, then add CALL as the secondary sort.
