refer to variable from subReport

guzial

hello everybody

i have on my report 2 subReports and every of that sub reports contains masterDatas bands. I want to on report have one memo where be sum of records from that masterdatas, it is not a problem to do somethig like that inside subReport on masterFooter band :
[SUM(someData, MasterData1)] and that will sum up records from masterdata1

but how can i do it outside subReport (on main report) - it doesn't work - why ??
mayby i should do something like [SUM(someData, SubReprot1.MasterData1)] - but id doesn't work too

thanks 4 help

sorry 4 my english

Use an intermediate variable and use it in main report
but you willonly be able to use it in areas after subrep is finished.
