Formatting number result for sub-summary

[elipsett]

Numbers reported in sub-summaries in reports are automatically rounded.

It would save me an enormous amount of time and effort if there were merely some way to convert those numbers to integers.

 

Since they are showing up in reports, though, it seems to be impossible to perform any calculations on them, and for other reasons it is difficult to convert to an integer elsewhere.

 

Alternately, if it is possible to capture a number displayed in a sub-summary into another field for manipulation that might work too, but again because this is in a report every time I try to capture the number, I end up capturing a number representing the entire found record set, not just the subset I need. The non-integer number displays perfectly for each sub-set in the report, but I can't find any way to convert that displayed number into the integer value I need.

 

I welcome any suggestions, but it would be enormously difficult to create a sample DB to short you exactly what is involved.

 

Thanks for your time.

You can use GetSummary ( ). Wrap it with round or Int to get what you are looking for.

Thank you.

That does indeed seem to be what I'm looking for.
 

I'll go ahead and plug it in later today and see what happens.
