    Sum data from multiple item form

    I have a multiple item form used to display items from an inventory.

    What I need to do is sum a specific aspect of the entries. So say I filter my results to only show items with serial number 23-09. There will be multiple entries for that serial number, but they will all have different values for a “material removed” field.

    What I want the form to do is display the sum of the displayed values.

    Any ideas?

    Form is in Continuous or Datasheet View?

    Continuous, try: textbox in form Header/Footer with expression of =Sum([material removed])

    Datasheet, try: form not in design view, click the Totals button from ribbon to open a summary row at bottom of the form, select the Sum function under the "material removed" field.
