Calculations in Form footers
I am a continuous for that I am using to whereby I calculated totals in the
footer section. It works fine until I try to sum on a calculated textbox from detail section. I have an "Expense" field, a "Markup%" field, then a calculated field that multiplies these two I can sum the "Expense" amount field, but not the calculated markup field. Should I be able to or is this somethign that just won't work in a footer? Thanks. -- Message posted via AccessMonster.com http://www.accessmonster.com/Uwe/For...forms/201002/1 |

Calculations in Form footers
Carry out the multiplication again in the footer control ... don't try
pointing at the calculated control. The value of your footer control might look something like (untested): =Sum([YourExpenseField]*[YourMarkupField]) Good luck!
