This gives me a other() section in pie chart ....

like this ..... ...........| top limit=0 useother=true Customer,Price

The above top command is not working only the " limit "option is working ..... but not the " useother=true " option is not working .... can u please guide me...........

but when i use ......| top useother=true Customer,Price ..... this alone works ......

but i need top command with two option to work .... how can i make this ..please guide me....

The settings limit=0 useother=true contradict each other. useother applies to those cut off by the limit, but limit=0 doesn't cut anything off.

What you're seeing in the pie chart is the chart summarizing many small slices into one other-slice, that's not a result of the top command. See the tabular results view for confirmation.
