    Angry Top Contributors

    Hi,



    I'm trying to get a report from a database. This is all good. The whole database and reports are set up but I'm struggling to get the top contributors.

    I want to have a report that only displays set number of top contributors based on one column.

    Additonally I wanted to get the top contributors to be highlighted. I was attempting to do this using condition formatting but I was unable to get it to work correctly.

    Could anyone please give me some advice on how to achieve these two effects or point me to a source where I can find this? I was unable to find anything specific on Google. I've spent a fair bit of time on this yet and other projects are pressing.

    Thanks

    Try the TOP predicate in you query:

    SELECT TOP 10...
    FROM
    ORDER BY YourField
