Hi

I have a main report (its the company paysheet) which contains 3 subreports. I would like to show a total from one of the subreports at the top of the main report also.

Can I do this without repeating the same torturous calculations? I've tried =reports!paysub1!txtGrandTot in the text box on the main report but all I get from that is #Name?

Any suggestions please?
 
try to address it through the sub report control on your main report.

like this:

reports.main.sub.report.txtGrandTot

where "main" is the name of your main report and "sub" is the name of the subreport control on your main report.
