Order of subreports on main report

:confused: I have inheritted a system with reports that were probably written by a novice access programmer. My problem is a report with a dozen subreports in them. I had to add another subreport to that report. Many subreports set a global variable that is used to sum grand totals later. When I added my report, placed in the middle of the report, I found that the grand total subreport, which is placed after my subreport, is opened prior to my subreport. My subreport adds a value to that grand total. Because my report opens after, it is not included in the grand total subreport.

How do I determine or set the order of subreports on the main report?

Try setting group headers and footers. By putting the subreports in footers and that grandtotal subreport in the report footer this should help.
