SUM(1,MasterData1,1)

;) I am new to FastReports. I have created a program with a group header, a master data band, and a group footer as a test report. I have placed the function
[SUM(1, MasterData1, 1)] in the group footer band. (MasterData1 is the name of my master data band). What I expected from this function was a sum of the number of records in the master data band. Unfortunately, all I get is 0. When I display the master data band (normally hidden), I see the data I expect.

Is there something special that needs to be done to get the SUM function to work in a group footer?

I appreciate any help you can give me. ;)

    you are using the wrong function and improperly

    [SUM(1, MasterData1, 1)]

    [SUM(thiswould be a field or var, MasterData1, 1)]
    to get a sum of the values of that field.

    you want to use the count function.
