Ok, you asked for it! I have no idea what this is going to look like but this is the ultimate goal. Each of this non-calculated values combines a number of G/L account numbers (often in sequence but not always), a period, and a fiscal year. I'm not sure I understand what you are saying about building my own table, but my brain is getting soggy from staring at these numbers. I'd consider it a victory for now if I could just click on the report icon, have it prompt for a period and for a fiscal year and get just the first column of data. So far I've been able to get it to prompt for the year in the Gross Sales query but I I'm not quite sure how to get it to take a requested period and then use that and sum it. And even if I could that only gets the first number in the column. I don't want it to prompt subsequently for each query. I'm used to building forms to input data into a table and building reports to pull data from tables. This is quite different, at least I think it is, from things I've done in the past.
