Subreport value within a formula

[edwindow]

Does anyone know if it is possible to take the value within a subreport and put it within a formula within the master report. I have made a subreport that basically gets the total number of employees. But now I need that total to make a calculation within my main report. Is there a way to do this or do I need to take a different approach?

You need to use shared variables to access a value in a subreport.

when using shared variables....make certain the subreport and the formula using the shared variable are NOT in the same section...if necessary create a subsection above where the formula is used Jim Broadbent
