(It's considered polite to put your question in the text area, not
just the subject; and to include enough explanation that someone might
have a chance of answering).

A Totals query will total data; you can also use a textbox in the
Footer of a Form or Report with a control source

=Sum([fieldname])

I have no idea how you're trying to do the total, so I cannot tell
what you might be doing wrong; if you'ld care to explain, we should be
able to fix it.

Thank you, I will. I do so frequently already.

If you have a question about SUM, please post it as a question in the
text area, not just the subject line.

That wasn't a question. It was an answer. There was no text in the body of
the post to quote.
