I pretty sure this can be done. I would like to create one field that will total up the amount of each record found. In other words field "a" has a diffenrent total for each record. however I would like to have a global field that will show a total of all records added together or records found. waht would be the easiest way to create this?

Thanks

What you are looking for is a Summary field. A Summary field performs a selected calculation across the found set of records (Total, Count, Average, Min, Max, etc.). Global fields are variables and perform no calculations on their own.

You might want to look at field types in the FM manual.
