sum subform to form
=Sum([Forms]![frmCamPledgeList].[frmCamPledgeListSub].[Amount Pledged]) Form (frmCamPledgeList) with subform frmCamPledgeListSub). Subform has a field named Pledge Amount. I want to put a field on the form that gives me a total of the subform's Amount Pledged. I have tried the above, but I get an #error in the unbound text box. Do you need any more info? Any thoughts on why this does not work? Thanks in advance, Scott -- Message posted via AccessMonster.com http://www.accessmonster.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/access-forms/200912/1

The proper syntax is =Sum([Forms]![frmCamPledgeList]![frmCamPledgeListSub].Form![Amount Pledged]) (note the addition of .Form in there) That assumes that the name of the subform control on form frmCamPledgeList is frmCamPledgeListSub. Depending on how the subform was added, the name of the subform control may be different than the name of the form being used as a subform. It's the subform control name you must use. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no e-mails, please!)

Doug, I am getting #error in the control. So I assume I have the wrong subform name. In the property sheet for the form, when I select the subform and get little squares around it, It says: Name: frmCamPledgeListSub Source Object: frmCamPledgeListSub When I click in the blank area of the subform, it says: Record Source: qryContributorPledges Caption: frmCamPledgeListSub When I open the subform directly and select the form, I get: Record Source: qryContributorPledges Caption: frmCamPledgeListSub Every name seems the same to me. Is there somewhere else I should look? Best, Scott Douglas J.

Yes, it does sound as though your subform control is named the same as the form being used as a subform. While the form's open, go to the Immediate Window (Ctrl-G), type the following ?[Forms]![frmCamPledgeList]![frmCamPledgeListSub].Form.RecordSource then hit Enter. If you get qryContributorPledges, then the references are correct. To be honest, I'm not certain whether you can actually use Sum like that: my original response was more about how to refer to controls on subforms than the entire problem. You may have to use DSum instead. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no e-mails, please!)

Doug, Got it!. Field in subform footer: =sum([AmountPledged]). name control: txtAmMountPledged. Control in form footer: =[frmCamPledgeListSub].[Form]! [txtAmountPledged] works like a charm. I got it after I tried your imm. win. experiment and it worked and your comment that it probably would not work as an =sum control. Many thanks, Scott Douglas J.

not summing all the cells
I wanted to sum the values from an column but for some cells it doesnt sum it to the total. Why is this?

Hello, I have created a form in Access for users to use. My form is about 6" x 6". Everytime I double click the Access file to open, I setup the form to be automatically opened. But the Access backgroud is also displayed. Is there a way to not show the Access background? To make it more like a real application. thanks. In startup options (Tools--Startup), uncheck 'display database window'. This is for version 2003. -- Dorian "Give someone a fish and they eat for a day; teach someone to fish and they eat for a lifetime". "Boon"...

Making a Time book Form
I'm creating a time book in access to record Shift work and time off and such things. so far everything seems Ok but the Form. i need the Form to lay out as a Biweekly calender, dates across the top employees down the left side. The User puts in a Payperiod Number and the rest of the Form populates on Refresh and the user can make adjustments. I can't seem to find away to make it work. Does any one have any suggestions?

change property on subform
Hi and thank you for your time, I have a form/subform with a one to many relationship. In the subform, I have fields Oct, Nov, Dec, etc in each record. I want to compare the Nov date to the Oct date and change the BackColor if the dates do not equal.

But everytime I click the button to print the report all the records from the query print. Not just my filtered records. Can anyone help me? Thanks! You can apply the form's filter to the report by putting code like this in the Click event procedure of a command button on your form: Dim strW...
not summing all the cells
I wanted to sum the values from an column but for some cells it doesnt sum it to the total. Why is this? Maybe some of the numbers have been formatted as text, are any of them left-aligned instead of right-aligned? To convert text cells to number format you will need to highlight them and use Format->Cells to set the format to number, then click on each cell and press F2 followed by Enter as a bug in Excel means text cells won't convert immediately back to number unless you re-enter the data.
