Main Report/Subreport and Counting Records

[vafishing]

I am using crystal 8.5. I have a mainreport and a subreport which displays membership types. Here is an example: Single Installment(in main report) Single installment(subreport). If there is an entry in the subreport, I want to count it and add it to a total in the main report. For example I want to show the total number of single installments in a total in the main report, despite the fact that it is listed in the subreport. Am I to use a shared var and if so how would it need to be set up

In your subreport:

//formula1
Shared NumberVar X := Count({Stuff});

In the main report - not to be placed any sooner than the section after the section which contains the subreport:

//formula2
WhilePrintingRecords;
NumberVar Y;
Shared NumberVar X;

Y := Count({Stuff}) + X;

//to add it to the main report total.
