Total in report header for calculated field
I have a control on my report that calculates the cost, depending on whether
the user has typed in their own value so [CCost] = =IIf([Cost]=0,[cost],[quantity]*[itemcost]). I have put in a hidden textbox [CCostText] and I can use this to give me totals at the end of each section and at the end of the whole report (using over group and over all) - which is great. However I really want the overall total at the top of the report - and I cannot persuade it to do this - but it would if it was simply the [cost] that I was totalling. Any ideas?

Try sum the expression for anywhere you need it such as group or report
headers or footers. =Sum(IIf([Cost]=0,[cost],[quantity]*[itemcost])) -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP -- "HelenJ" wrote in message ...
