Ok, after all the research on datagrids, I've found that they won't really work for what I'm trying to do...I have a table that I need to have three columns as static data (but each row has a different value) and two other columns that have to do calculations, and a summary row/footer at the bottom of the table.

Hi All, In an AccessXP report in a Group Footer I have the following in a textbox and I don't think its working. Question; Is AccessXP smart enough to know to first sum up all the values of and count how many before it calculates the average for only those records that met the criteria? or is it just capturing the last value for that grouping and calculating it.

Hello folks, 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. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
