May I suggest a global variable?  They must be good for something!

Subject: [AccessD] Referencing Fields in Sub-Reports


How can I reference values in textboxes that are located in sub-reports? 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?
 
Thanks,
