Question : Subtotaling Group Calculated Fields
|
|
Hello,
I have a report with several groups in it. My details sections contains the following information: Volume Rate Charge [Volume] [Rate] ([Volume]*[Rate])
Charge is a textbox (textbox11) in which the two fields Volume and Rate are multiplied.
In the footer of the details section I need a subtotal of all the charges for that group. Since Charge is not an actual database field, I am unsure how to do this. I have tried setting the control source for the subtotal = Sum(textbox11) but that does not work.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
Thanks for any help, -Torrwin

Answer : Subtotaling Group Calculated Fields

Have you tried calculating Charge in the reports recordsource? For example change the reports table/query to:
SELECT *, [Volume] * [Rate] AS Charge FROM tblYourTable;
Then you could just change textbox11 to: [Charge]
Then to calculate the total you could use: =Sum([Charge])
