Thanks for the quick reply!
I actually want to leave the textbox stationary in the corner, i having the problem of calculating the total for the column values.
I've tried setting the textboxes value to =sum(payments.amount) but this doesn't seem to work. I must be missing something simple...

>Not precisely trivial, but yes, you can add up the values - several methods for that - and put the result in the TextBox. The tricky part is to keep the TextBox alligned with the corresponding Grid Column, because the user can (a) scroll off, (b) rearrange the column order, and (c) change the column widths.
