report total problem

I have what I hope is a simple question for some of you. I have two
fields. Quantity and Price. I enter a text box named SubTotal in the
detail of the report and set the control source to
=[Quantity]*[Price]. This works fine and I have all the correct
values in the detail of the report. Now at the bottom of my report I
want a total. I insert a text box in the report footer named Total
and set the control source to =sum([SubTotal]). This does not work.
I get an "enter parameter" dialog box for SubTotal when the report
runs.

Any help?

Thanks

By 'at the bottom of the report' I'll guess you mean the Page Footer,
not the Report Footer.

See Microsoft KnowledgeBase article:

Hi, I have a report displaying items that are missing from a room. I created 2 queries, the first getting the items IN the room, and the second being an "unmatched" query that references the first query where Item is Null. I use a subreport for the details, and the results display correctly. However, the Report_Details event of the subreport is executed about 2 or 3 times more than I would expect (I think 3 times when I have a
