Hi,
I've got an access report which contains a sub-report. The sub-report
contains various items in a group Footer which culminates in a running sum
text box called txtGrandTotal. I want to use this 'total' in the main
report so I have a text box with the following:-
=([Reports]![RPT_MainReport]![RPT_SubReport].[Report]![txtGrandTotal])
For some reason, which I'm sure is perfectly obvious but I'm buggered if I
can think why, the above doesn't actually show the grand total. Instead it
shows the value of the first record in the sub-report's group footer. I.e.
txtGrandTotal in RPT_SubReport shows the CORRECT value
[Reports]![RPT_MainReport]![RPT_SubReport].[Report]![txtGrandTotal] shows
the INCORRECT value
What am I missing?!?
TIA,
Andy

A *running sum* text box in the subreport? Hmm. That's probably a timing
issue, i.e. at the time the main report reads the value from the subreport,
only the first record has been accessed.
Is there any chance of placing a text box in a group footer in the
subreport, and setting its ControlSource to:
=Sum([SomeField])
so that this box is dependent on all the others, and so Access can get the
total only after it is completed?
(You can set the Visible property of the text box or even the group footer
section to No if you don't want it shown.)

Do you mean create *any* Sum field in the group footer - i.e.
=Sum([Anything]) ? If so I've already got a summing field in the group
footer (the whole shebang is in the group footer) - I don't have anything in
the Detail of the subreport at all - is that bad?

Oh, Access... how I love it. Gave up and created another utterly pointless
subreport and copied all the 'summary' stuff I wanted in the main report
into this sub report - then inserted this subreport back into the main
report. That works!
Gah! :-)

Is it possible to call a remote php script from within Access? I'm thinking
something like:

DoCmd.OpenQuery "update_data", acNormal, acEdit

So the PHP script does something on the server database, then when a linked
table is viewed within access, the data changes have been made?

Hi folks,
I would be interested to hear peoples views on whether or not 'pass by
reference' is allowed when using a Web Service method.
The thing that troubles me about pass-by-reference into a WebService is that
essentially we are passing an address of an object which resides on the
'local machine' i.e. a local machine object address. Surely when the
WebService method is called and run 'on the server', the reference type will

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
