So I have an access report I have created that shows a summary of donors and their appeal codes. To do this I used a query that brought all of our donors and their appeal codes, then summed them by appeal code to get what is shown below.
CountOfAppeal Description SumOfGift Amount Appeal Description percent avggift # solicited 10849 $2,486,744.03 12AAA 1stMail 0.413594601807022 229.214123882385 26231 40 $5,150.00 12AAA 1stMail - New Adds 6.39795265515035E-03 128.75 6252 831 $122,083.24 12AAA 1stMail Sybunt 4.60132890365448E-02 146.911239470517 18060 1747 $314,923.90 12AAA 2ndMail 8.40065397191768E-02 180.265540927304 20796 644 $87,886.33 12AAA 3rdMail 0.031078081266287 136.469456521739 20722 234 $957,512.74 12AAA Direct Solicitation

However now they would like to see this summarized further. What we would like to do now is summarize all the appeal descriptions that are "mail" so that we can see how much came in via 1st mail, 2nd mail combined. So I need to combine all the appeals with Mail in the description to see this.
CountOfAppeal Description SumOfGift Amount Appeal Description percent avg gift # solicited xxxxx xxxxx Direct Mail (this would combine all the "mail appeal codes") xxxx xx xx xxxxx xxxxx Phone (this would combing 12AAA in house phone and 12AAA Phone) xxxx xx xx xxxxx Direct Solicit xxxx xx xx xxxx xxxxx Other (this would be 12AAA Internet, 12AAA Payroll, 12AAA in Pew) xxxx xx xx Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
