Can't you calculate it in the query itself?

If you post a working Test case: create table and insert statements along with the result you want with these data then we will work with your table and data and show you how to do it.

This is awful, post it again with a correct format and add the INSERT statements for the data and the result you want for them.

If you make any effort to post your questions why should we make any effort to help you?

OK, you have test, test1, class and what is the result you want, explaining where all the result columns come from.

 create table student (

That is main query for report.

 select  distinct sub.sno,test1.obtmarks, test1.perct,test.examc,test.totmarks, test.class|| '/' ||test.sec,  
 sub.subject, student.stuid,student.name 
 from sub,test1, test, student,class

 and test1.tid = test.tid
 and student.studid = test.tstuid
and student.status='PRESENT'
and test.examc=:ty
and student.class=:cls
and section=:ssec
order by sub.sno


result required for 2.jpg. (1st position , 2nd position, 3rd position of the students) in my previous reply.

reports 6i doesn't recognize rank, oracle DB 9i does.
So create a view that does all the calculations you need then query that from the report.

And you can't use rank in a query against dual like that it makes no sense, you have to apply it to the base tables.

What is the criteria for determining rank?
I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be partitioning by %age.

If you want to sort them by newly calculated rank value, why did you put
order by sub.sno
into the query? Try with
select rank_value,
       <all other columns you need>
from (your query goes here)
order by rank_value
instead.

If you think that you don't know what partitioning does.
Don't explain with reference to how you think the rank function works, explain the rules in simple English.

My means is that i want to partition the query/table on percentage which i calculated by .

function CF_1Formula return Number is
begin
  RETURN(Round((NVL(:SOBT,0)/NVL(:CS_TOT,0))*100));
end;


:SOBT means student obtained marks and :cs_tot means total no of the 6 or 8 subjects.

So If you have 10 students each with a different % score they'll all have a rank of 1. Is that really what you want?
Cause that's what partitioning by % gives.

yes if the students have diffrent like that:
S-No  Name      Eng+Urdu+math  Total(Subj)    ObtTot    %      Rank
1     A         30+40+52       200            122       61      3     
2     B         40+41+70       200            151       75      2        
3     C         41+42+80       200            163       82      1
4     D         41+42+80.2     200            163.2     82      1

That's the result i want.

You really don't like explaining rules in words do you? Example output is always helpful but it doesn't always make clear what required logic is.
You want students ranked by percentage.
The question is do subsets of students belong to different ranked sets, or should all the students in the output be in the same ranked list?
e.g.
SQL> WITH DATA AS (SELECT CASE WHEN ROWNUM < 5 THEN 'A' ELSE 'B' END AS class,
  2                ROWNUM stuid,
  3                ROWNUM * 10 percentage FROM dual CONNECT BY LEVEL < 10)
  4  SELECT class,
  5         stuid,
  6         percentage,
  7         RANK () OVER ( order by percentage DESC) total_rank,
  8         RANK () OVER (PARTITION BY CLASS order by percentage DESC) rank_per_class
  9  FROM DATA;
 
CLASS      STUID PERCENTAGE TOTAL_RANK RANK_PER_CLASS
----- ---------- ---------- ---------- --------------
B              9         90          1              1
B              8         80          2              2
B              7         70          3              3
B              6         60          4              4
B              5         50          5              5
A              4         40          6              1
A              3         30          7              2
A              2         20          8              3

The rank needs to order by percentage, what isn't clear is whether you need a partition by clause and if so what it should be.

I don't really know since you still haven't really explained what you want generally, or even what the correct rank calculation is.
I know they say a picture paints a 1000 words but that's really not true here.
Rather it's a case of: a few simple sentences explaining your requirements would paint a 1000 pictures.

Something along lines of:
For each student I want to show a,b,c and d
d is calculated as e,f and g
Then I want to calculate a rank for each student in a given group (or not)

Above explanation should make no reference to summary or formula columns that we have no access to - it should refer to the appropriate columns from the tables themselves

ok - either you start supplying proper information - it'll take more than one sentence - or I stop helping you.
I asked for a detailed explanation of all the data you want the report to display.
I have no idea what your definition of a group of students is.

I want to made a matrix with group report class wise to display the student (id,name,subject numbers, obtained marks in subjects, total obtained marks, percentage, and position in the class or(rank in class).
i am using this main report query. table structure i already provided to you.
select  distinct sub.sno,test1.obtmarks, test1.perct,test.examc,test.totmarks, test.class|| '/' ||test.sec,  
 sub.subject, student.stuid,student.name 
 from sub,test1, test, student,class
 where LTRIM(test.subject)=RTRIM(sub.subject)
 and test.class=class.cname
 and class.cname=sub.cname
 and test1.tdate = test.tdate
 and test1.tid = test.tid
 and student.studid = test.tstuid
and student.status='PRESENT'
and test.examc=:ty
and student.class=:cls
and section=:ssec
order by sub.sno

the report format is in correct shape except only the (rank/position in the class not calculated correctly).if the percentage of the student is greater than the other students its rank/position in the class would be 1.than 2, 3......and so on. till last record of that class.if some student has equal percentage than rank/position will be decided by percentage decimal./forum/fa/12207/0/
in this picture the detail of all subjects, students, obtained marks, subjects marks shown. and i highlight the formula column. The POS is empty. in that column the result of rank should be displayed based on %age column.
