MS ACESSS calculation of percentage question in report
I have an MS ACCESS report. in the detail section I count the number of objects for each day, then have a percentage calculated.
In the footer, I SUM the counts for a grand total of the selected dates. My problem is, I dont know how to write the grand total percentage.
In the detail section, I write my percentage calculation like this and it works: =[CountOfChartedStatus2]/[
In the footer, these are the two fields I need to make a percentage of: =Sum([CountOfChartedStatus
How should I write this to get a percentage. Thanks.

That was the first thing I tried. If it was to work, I think need to write it a different way. I am using the actual table name fields.

Thanks for fixing my typo again. Maybe I need new glasses.

This assumes the summed fields are in the Recordsource. You CANNOT sum control values. Calculations that reference control names work ONLY when the controls are in the same section as the calculation so that Access has them available at the current time. If those are the names of controls, change them to be the names of the actual table fields.
