706 InfoMaker
• For Graph controls, Rows can be All, Page, or Group.
• For OLE controls, Rows can be All, Current Row, Page, or Group. The
available choices depend on the layer the control occupies.
Null values are ignored and are not considered in determining the maximum.
Not in validation rules or filter expressions
You cannot use this or other aggregate functions in validation rules or filter
expressions.
Using an aggregate function cancels the effect of setting Retrieve Rows As
Needed in the painter. To do the aggregation, a report always retrieves all rows.
Examples This expression returns the maximum of the values in the age column on the
page:
Max(age for page)
This expression returns the maximum of the values in column 3 on the page:
Max(#3 for page)
This expression returns the maximum of the values in the column named age
in group 1:
Max(age for group 1)
Assuming a report displays the order number, amount, and line items for each
order, this computed field returns the maximum of the order amount for the
distinct order numbers:
Max(order_amt for all DISTINCT order_nbr)
