But if I use a Sum Of for a page and I want to put it in the page header, then do I have to use two passes and count passes - once to calc and the 2nd time display? That's a crock. At least DBCalc has the LookAhead; just gotta figure out how to reset it so it has only the total for the current page.
Maybe I'll try using the system page number as a break point.
Should it be this convoluted?

I don't think you're doing anything wrong, Javier. That's what I've found also. I'm setting up a traditional Sum Of variable to reset on page break rather than using the DBCalc. I also tried using the system var PageNumber and reset on that but it didn't work.

Dennis and Tony,

When I right click on the DBCalc field and select Calculation or Reset
Breaks, both options display only the defined breaks and not the Page Break (Ver. 9.5), the only place where I can reset variables at the Page level is by selecting Report>>Break and then going to the On Page Break>>Reset Vars;
am I doing something wrong?

Doug,

Maybe I am mistaking, but in the report writer you are able to reset
variables on page break.

How do I reset a Sum DBCalc on page break?
It's in a page header intended to calc the sum of InvTotals on that page.

I added a page number sys var and have the DBCalc reset on the page number,
but that shows the total for all pages on each page.

TIA,
Doug
I think my report braincell has taken Friday off.
