No SecondPass, Percentage of Total on Rows

edited February 2004 in Subreports
I'm using the meanwhile quite familiar technique (FirstPass Set & SecondPass
Calc) to calculate for each row the percentage of their contribution into
the toal of a given column. Works fine on the main report.
But it didn't work on a subreport. I've been reading a bit ans in posts
before 2001 the PassSetting of the Subreport are discussed, but on a post on
15/05/2002 there is said that subreports never have a secondpass.
If they don't, is there another technique to calculate this percentage.

Kind Regards.

    Another way to do this is to create a summary query that contains the group
    totals.Then you do not the second pass.

    Can you check the main Report.FirstPass and SecondPass properties rather
    than the child report's?
