Perhaps I posted it at a bad time. Anyway, in the hope that somebody may come to my rescue I have copied the text of my first e-mail below. "Can anybody help me please (in very simple terms) to insert a TOTAL at the end of a £ column in a report, I have a very simple database consisting of details of items of stock including a VALUE AT COST field and I simply want to place a Grand Total at the end of the report. At one time I used either Microsoft Access or Lotus Approach to do this where it was a very simple matter as far as I can remember, but I dont think the earlier versions of OO had this capability. I have tried searching Help and on-line help but perhaps some kind soul can point me in the right direction. With thanks in anticipation," John B To do this you need to have added the oracle report builder extension. This will permit you to have a column of figures and a sum of those figures below it. There is a digital book available at www.lulu.com describing how to do this.
