Hello:

I have a report that pulls in a figure onto the main report from a subreport within the main report.

I would like to add this figure to a figure that I have in the main report.

Is this possible to do in Crystal XI? If so, how? The Formula Editor does not seem to have access to fields that lie in subreports.

Hello:

I read an article on how to do this. it is in the URL below.

It almost works except for one thing. The total formula in step 4 only works if it is placed in the Report Footer. Long story short, I need it where it is--in the Group Footer. You see, my total is not a report total.

My only objective here is to add two figures together and one is in the subreport. I don't want to put the total in the report footer for criminy sakes! Please help!

Hello:

Disregard....I got this to work, per my previous update. I simply added another group footer and placed the formula from step 4 into this second group footer (group footer b).
