Summing on Reports

[Eric]

Hello, I was wondering how I build a field that sums all of the data from a
certain field. For example, I have a field in each record with dollar
amounts and I just want the SUM on a report.

I'm assuming this is a fairly simple task... I just started working with
Access again, so I am a little rusty... if there is a good web-site to assist
with working with Access I would appreciate that as well.

Thanks

In the ReportHeader or ReportFooter use a TextBox with a ControlSource
of...

=Sum(YourFieldName)
