[tt]FOR EACH FIELD IN <cursor name>[/tt] is not valid VFP syntax. FOR EACH is used to loop through arrays or collections, not tables or cursors. You probably want to use a SCAN instead (although it's hard to know for sure because I'm having diffculty in understanding your code).

I suggest you start by studying the relevant items in the VFP Help.

This has many misunderstandings.

A loop on all fields can't be done by FOR EACH. But there is a loop as you need it just a few lines above using ncols=FCOUNT() - the field count - and using FIELD(j) for getting the field name of field number j, i.e. also FIED.NAME is wrong, it would either address a property Name of an object Field or the field called name of a workarea called Field, but there is no such object or workarea.

What you want to do is

Code:
FOR j = 1 TO ncols
lcFieldname= FIELD(j)
...
ENDFOR

The rest of your code also won't work, though. To add a SUM formula in Excel, you'll need cell names, not a column name. And when you set a formula, that will be evaluated and why do you set the value, when you set the formula, the formula will compute the value, that's not your task. If you set formula and then value, the value will override the formula result, that's just not what you want. You will also only be able to sum cells that are numeric, so this won't necessarily work for all columns, anyway.

Think harder about what you want in the "..." section of the loop.

Hi,

Your SQL SELECT will also throw an error. In VFP9 you have to group by all columns that are NEITHER constants (e.g. 'Invoice ' as doc_type) NOR aggregate functions (SUM(...) as)

EDIT: I just noticed that you SET ENGINEBEHAVIOR TO 70 to circumvent the error throwing of your SELECT ... Although this is possible it is rather confusing since your mixing different behaviors of the VFP SQL engine.
 
Most of the code is replaceable by the COPY TO or EXPORT command, by the way, you get all data written out to an xls file. That's an old Excel file type, but supporting all relevant VFP data types except general fields. Clearly, it supports all numeric types which are the only ones relevant for sums. And they also export a first row with field names.

Then the only aftermath to do is load the file and add the sum formulas.

thank you Chris, mjcmksr, Mike for your advice just if you could tell me like i get the dbf with these headings as shown and i want to export to dbf with sum of few fields ( as rightly pointed out by mjcmksr) what code should i write please if youll can guide me only the export and sum part
regards
