Through a query I've created a report with 95 records and the following fields: Profile_ID, Project_Name, Purpose and Obligated. I've been unsuccessful in grand totalling the "Obligated" field which represents funding per project. I know I need to put the calculated control in the report footer but I when I insert =sum([Obligated])using a text box control all I get is a '0' The "running sum" is toggled to "over-all." I think my problem may be related to the text box being unbound. Thanks in advance for any assistance with this question.
 
How is Obligated calculated? ljprodev@yahoo.com

You know, the running total calculated control works great when the complete field name is correctly entered as a control source. Duh! I'm now able to include a grand total in my report very quickly and easily. Problem solved. Thx
