Changing Variables in the title band?

rbuser

I have three variables in a title band of a report that I need to
change. One is total number sold, one is total new sold and one is
total used sold. What's the best way to go about changing these as
the report prints? This is a state dictated report so the layout can
not be changed.

Use the variable's OnCalc event.

If the data is coming from a pipeline, then you should use a dbCalc
component, which has its dbCalcType property set to dcSum. It will
automatically total the value for you as the report prints. You'll need to
set the report.PassSetting to psTwoPass and set the dbCalc's LookAhead
property to True.
