Abstract: A system and method are disclosed which utilize a computer executable software program to generate software code for constructing desired summary data for one or more data stores. A preferred embodiment provides a software program that is capable of dynamically creating application software code for summarizing one or more data stores in the manner desired by an end user. Most preferably, the software program enables a user to define a desired summary through a graphical user interface, and the software program then generates the necessary software code for achieving the desired summary. Upon executing the generated software code, a desired summary is obtained, which may be stored within a “summary data store” and/or included within a summary report, as examples. Specifically, the generated software code may be executed to “construct” the desired summary data.
