Mike,
I've got a report that i'm listing the totals of the records that have certain criteria (given by the user). That part prints fine, but at the bottom, I also need these totals totaled. That is what the code is supposed to do.

The error is that "the variable 'total' could not be found". total is actually a cursorname, and it's the records in 'total' that I need summed and used in my report.
