        I'm not sure that another virtual field is the best solution, unless it 
is defined as part of the project bizobj. Is that what you're doing? It would 
be pretty meaningless as part of the tasks bizobj.

        If the virtual field is defined in the project bizobj, it is 
straightforward to calculate the sum of the child values for a given project. 
Paul has done much more work on this, so I'm hoping he can give you a better 
example than I could come up with.
