Why create a calculation form in OoWriter instead of OoCalc? You can make it look like a Writer document without printing the gridlines. Then, you can make all of the calculations you could ever want. You can also number them sequentially, if you want.

There are the following types of fields: Travel: $1000 Food: $80 Other: $100 Total: $1180 My question is, how do I create a field that automatically calculates the total? I've tried doing what works on a report when you're connected to a database, but it doesn't work. (Using a numerical field type, then typing Select SUM(fieldname as totalfieldname).) http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid39_gci1260586,00.html Thanks, Solveig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------- Be a better Heartthrob.
