Use the GetSummary function. Do some experiments to figure it out. Tough to 
explain.

>  Hello!
>  I'm trying to create a report that shows the number of records with each
>  type of OrderType in a file. I know how to set up a layout with a
>  sub-summary when sorted by "fieldname" footer to get the counts of each
>  keycode. What I can't figure out is how to then subtotal each set. For
>  instance, we may have:
>  
>  OrderType:          CountOrderType
>  AB1               2
>  AB2               4
>  AB3               6
>  
>  HE1               1
>  HE2               3
>  HE3               1
>  
>  I'd like a subtotal of the counts of the ABs, then a subtotal of the
>  counts of the HEs, etc.
>  
>  Then, I'd like a grand total of all the counts.
