Calculations using values in DBCalc

edited January 2005 in RAP
In the group footer I have a few DBCalc fields that do the sums.

Is it possible to use OnCalc event of a Variable on the same footer to use
values from the DBCalc fields to perform further calculations?

The DBCalc fields do not appear in the Calculate Order view so I am not sure
if they have values in them before the Variable.OnCalc event fires.

Thank you

    I think they will fire in z-order, but I not certain. The z-order is the
    order of the elements as displayed in the Report Tree tool windows. You can
    use BringToFront to move an item to the end of the list and SendToBack to
    put it in the front.

    If that does not work, then use Variables and set the CalcOrder.

    Making sure the variable was at the bottom of the Z order worked.

    Thank you.
