Total from Sum Query in Unbound Text Box on Form 1

[SColbert]

I've got two forms (Golfers and Sponsors) based on two tables (also Golfers and Sponsors). Tables are linked via GolferID field.

There is an unbound text box on the Golfers form that I'd like to use to show the total amount pledged for each golfer. I've created a Sum Query that's working, but can't get the Total Pledged to populate the unbound text box - just get the #Name? error.

I know this should be simple, but can't wrap my head around it this afternoon - Help!

Have a look at the DSum function.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks - when I tried that, I got an error stating "Automation Object not supported" in reference to the query name qryPledgeTotal.

My expression read:
=DSum([PledgeTotal],[qryPledgeTotal],["GolferID = & "GolferID])

I guess that qryPledgeTotal already does the summation:
=DLookUp("PledgeTotal", "qryPledgeTotal", "GolferID=" & GolferID)

Hope This Helps, PH.

Of Course! It was right in front of me - too close to see, obviously. Thanks much!
