  read about the displaying expressions with the help of the text object, in the creating reports section of the use manual.
  when you work in a memoview [] tells the engine to calc the value contained inside the braces
  and display that value. Since a memoview allows both text and data/variable values it is displaying what you told it to display.
  if you want to have sums of values use an intermediate variable for display and write code in either the band's or the memoview's obp event to gather the sum in that variable.
  or use () braces ie (<dataset."field1"> + <dataset."field2">)
  i suggest you read the user manual for working inside the report and the programmers manual as working from delphi.

  dear gordk :
  
  thanks for your guide
  
  i try with (<alum1m."AS1">+<alum1m."AS2"> ) and don't work... why ? i dont know.. i will check another time, but now dont have time to check
  
  i use a variable with IIF(<alum1m."AS1"> = 'NS',1,0)+IIF(<alum1m."AS2"> = 'NS',1,0) and it works....
  
  thanks

  sorry.. and thanks...

  no you changed your code from what you previously had.
  previous was [iif(blabla)] + [iif(blabla)]
  you now have [iif(blabla) + iif(blabla)] which is correct
