You can use CF with OLAP.  Read http://sys-con.com/story/?storyid=46790 for
a decent jumping-off point.

But if you don't want to pursue OLAP (it's not exactly painless) there are
several very capable members of this list who have helped me in the past
with my ugly web-based reporting queries.  If you post the query you may get
some very useful tips on how to solve the performance problems at the
root...

Thanks for the response.

For the application requirements, this should remain a web-based CF
reporting app.  I would just like to use cfoutput to the do the display
grouping rather than handling it manually.  Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Chris

It sounds like you're after a kind of pivot table functionality...  Do you
have OLAP capabilities at your disposal?  (MS Reporting Services is
installed w/ SQL Server if that applies...)

Subject: Dynamic cfoutput groups

Morning everyone.

I currently have a reporting app that allows output to be grouped
dynamically based on user preference.  The user can select an unlimited
number of values to group on and the groups are nested accordingly.  I
wasn't able to figure out a way to performing the grouping using cfoutput's
group attribute, so I just manually break out and track the groups.  Now
that this app is in production, I am finding a performance hit on very large
record sets and I am again exploring cfoutput's grouping as an option.  Does
anyone have any experience using cfoutput to dynamically construct nested
groups?

Thanks,
Chris
