"Balance Brought Forward" in Reports

V

VT

Hi

I have designed a report for use as an invoice. Sometimes, however, an
invoice may contain so many line items that two pages are required.

I would like the report to provide a "balance to be carried forward" for
page one of the invoice and a "balance brought forward" for page two.

I followed the steps in this knowledge base article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q132017 . This seems to work but I really
don't understand why. In particular, I don't understand how the code in the
page footer sections print event works (pagesum = runsum - x, x = runsum).

Before I can use it in my DB, I need to understand how it works. Can anyone
explain it to me in layman's terms?
