Slightly off topic, but I am under the impression that one can capture
the value of the DB Calc using GetProperty<componentID> along with the
FLOAT function so that one can use the result of a DB Calc in another
expression. Is this correct?

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I don't want to use DB
Calc, because I want to use the subtotals in other expressions.
In my report variables, I have the following integers defined:
vcount = 1
vsubtot = sum of vcount
vgrtot = sum of vcount
I have a break column, so I reset my variable vsubtot.
It works fine if I hit the report preview tab. But when I print this
from the command file, vsubtot and vgrtot are blank. If I initialize
them in my command file as zero, then it works up until the first
report break, and then vsubtot is blank after that. I've printed
everything in my detail section so I could see what's happening after
each row, and I just don't know what to do anymore. I've tried it
with dot variable names, I've moved them to differernt sections. Any
ideas what I could be doing wrong?
Thanks,

Maybe this is a dos to windows problem that I can't seem to grasp.
