stop a running sum

[samonwalkabout]

I have a running sum on a report.

Can i stop the running sum once it reaches a certain number.

Many thanks

I think you need to post this in the report section, but perhaps you could make the running sum text box a hidden control and use another calculated control to show the lesser of the limit you want and the value of the running sum text box.

Thanks Guys,

Can i build the running sum in the query itself and put a <[amount] filter in to restrict the amount of data the query feeds into the report.

I have WEEKID and USE. Just want to do running sum of amount each week. Then stop the query once USE get to a certain value, and count the number of weeks.


WEEKID Running USE Until 25
1 10
2 15
3 20
4 30 ------Stop

Hope this makes it easyer to understand not harder

I found a solution, it was a adaption of a technique dcx693 used in a previous thread using 2 querys. I just needed to get past looking for a Dsum or code solution.

Thanks again.
