Sum based on subforms
You main form needs a totals query to sum the data from the table that has
the data shown in the subform. -- Build a little, test a little.

You need to build or create a query based on the information in your
table, and then in design mode click the 'Totals' button and group the feild you want to total by 'sum'. f123 via AccessMonster.com wrote: appreciate your feedback DEWEY, but i didnot figure out what you mean!!

Sum based on subforms
I'm completely willing to admit if I'm wrong, but if f123 did what you
suggested (Bob and Karl), wouldn't it make the main form un-editable? f123, if you're up to it, I would recommend using an unbound field, and write a VBA module that updates the unbound field with the total. For one thing, your total shouldn't be editable, which means you can change the editable property of that field to false. The VBA module would look something like dim rsRecord as currentdb.openrecordset("Select sum(calculatedFieldName) from SomeTable WHERE KeyValue = " & me.KeyFieldName me.txtCalculatedValue.text = rsRecord("CalculatedFieldName") (some minor tweaking required, but this gives you a start) This module would go in the OnCurrent event procedure.
