Account No = 1
Starting Date = 1/27/2008
Ending Date = 1/28/2008

AccountNo.....Date........Amount
1..................1/27/2008...500
1..................1/27/2008...500
1..................1/28/2008...500

what do you mean by previous balance and how would anybody know what was the prev transaction (unless you are holding the same in another table or something)
pls elaborate...

Try inserting a numeric formula

Code:

---

WhileReadingRecords;
numberVar Balance := Balance + {Table1.Amount};
