I have a report (rptMain) with 2 subreports (rptSub1 and rptSub2). Each subreport only contains 1 textbox. I want to grab the values from each textbox in the 2 subreports, and display a total of the values on my main report, rptMain. I can't figure out how to enter the Control Source of the textbox on my main report. With forms, I would just use "Forms!frmMain.frmSub1.Form.txtTextbox + Forms!frmMain.frmSub2.Form.txtTextbox", or something of this nature. I can't figure out how to do this with reports. Any ideas?
