The aim of this exercise is to produce a table of all films winning more than 10 nominations, suitably ordered. Here's how to do this!
First create a new report, and within this create a dataset to include the following fields:
- FilmName, FilmOscarNominations and FilmOscarWins from the tblFilm table
- StudioName from the tblStudio table
Create a table to list out all of the films in this dataset.
Change the properties of your table to add sorting and filtering so that:
- The films are listed in order of nominations received (with the highest number first). Where two or more films have the same number of nominations, they are sorted by their film name.
- Only films receiving more than 10 nominations are shown.
