Default numerical summation to passed from sub to main form

I have a subform that tracks payments. I have a text box in the form footer
that calculates total payments. I need that total amount of payment passed
to the main form, so that I can then calculate a "balance due" from Total
Owed - Total Paid [which I do know how to do].

Thanks

Set the controlsource of a text box on the main form to:

Me.NameOfSubformControl.Form.NameOfTextbox

sunstituting appropriate names.

It didn't work. Any other suggestions?
