Displaying Total of Fields

[Superbaker]

I really dont know that much about crystal so hopefully I can explain this.

A report currently displays a seperate cost total for 60 different catagories. The field the total is displayed in is @TotalCost. I would like to add up all of these totals for all of the catagories at the end of the entire report. Hopefully someone can understand what I am looking for by this horrible description.

THanks

Share what's in @totalcost with us.

You may have to create another formula that totals these, this assumes that this formula is being reset at some group level or some such.

You don't need a formula to do subtotals and totals, right click any field in the details section and select insert summary->sum and turn on Grand Totals. You can then remove the field from the details if need be.

There is a group in this report.

That formula does nothing but display a value for LaborTotal, I'd need to know what the formula is doing that creates the total...

Anyway, consider using standard Crystal generated summaries (Insert Summary) or Running Totals if possible, or post the formula which sets the LaborTotal variable.
