Sum group total in report footer
I have a rather odd report. I use queries to collect the data I need into a make table. The report shows multiple stores within multiple counties. One of the criteria that I append repeats for all the stores (which I don't want). So on the report County grouping I show the field but I don't Sum by that field. It shows the amout once. And that works. The problem is that I want to sum that county field in the report total. The field that shows the correct data is called txtTarget. If I put =Sum([txtTarget]) in the Report footer it asks for txtTarget parameter. If I just Sum the field name (Target) it multiplies the single amount I want by all the stores in that County. Is there any simple way around this?
Report Ex:
County 1 Amt Target
Store 1 $35 $53 (shows in make table but not on rpt- which is what I want)
Store 2 $25 $53 (shows in make table but not on rpt- which is what I want)
Total $55 $53 (shows on report because I don't sum the field- which is what I want)
County 2
Store 1 $20 $51 (shows in make table but not on rpt- which is what I want)
Store 2 $30 $51 (shows in make table but not on rpt- which is what I want)
Total $50 $51 (shows on report because I don't sum the field- which is what I want)
Rpt Total $105 $104 (what I want but I get parameter error or $312)
