I am using LO 3.6.4 in Mac OS X 10.8.2. In Base I have a very simple, single table assets database. In a report, I am trying to calculate a grand total for all records.
I have a text field for each record in the report which has a calculated amount for the record (i.e. in Report Detail there is a field called ItemTotalValue which is bound to a function which has the formula [quantity]*[price]). The report runs and shows a value for ItemTotalValue for each record correctly. What I want to do is get a grand total which in effect accumulates ItemTotalValue for the whole report. I have successfully created a field which accumulates the price field (which is in the table) but, I can't figure out how to accumulate a field that is created in the report (i.e. it's not in the source table). I have created a function at the Report level called "Calculate Grand Total Value" which has the formula [Calculate Grand Total Value]+[ItemTotalValue]. I then bound a text box in the report footer to "Calculate Grand Total Value". But the report footer is a blank. So, "Calculate Grand Total Value" seems to be empty. I can't figure out how to get it working. Garry P.S. I can't find any rules for posting to this list. Can any one advise where the rules are ? -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
