Totalling Calculated Fields

[rdg0351]

I have a general question re: reports. If you create a numeric calculated field from data within a table, can you total that field by referencing the Name associated with the calculated field? I'm obviously missing something, since I keep getting asked "Enter Parameter Value" for the [calc field]

If you perform the calculation in the query, you will be able to tot up that field. To get the total or sum of calculations performed on report or form level, you must use code.

Thanks for your help. As an "old-time" programmer, I'm having to re-adjust to various report writers, etc.
