uvic_coop Posted October 12, 2000 Share Posted October 12, 2000 Say a report contains three columns: A, B and Total. To display subsummary and grand summary values for A and B, I would of course declare summary fields for both. But for Total, is it more efficient to: 1) use GetSummary() calculations (ie adding together summary, subsummary and grand summary fields for A and :; or 2) declare first a calculation field (total = field A + field : and then a summary field (summarizing "total")?

Either way works, but the second way requires more fields than the 1st option. ------------------ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Kurt Knippel Consultant Database Resources mailto:[email protected] http://www.database-resources.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
