Please help: How to Create a page sum

edited March 2003 in General
Hi,
I'm having a huge problem, and any help is more than appreciated...
The problem is:
I want to create a bill report. The data are pulled from a database.
The report will be printed on pre-printed paper where on the bottom of each
page sould be the progressive sum of a column.
So on the last page there should be the summary of all pages.
I use a DBcalc component with DBcalcType=dcSum and i place it on the page
footer.
The problem is that the report seems to understand that the page has change
only when the first line of the next page is printed.
That results on a miscalculation of the proggressive summary because it has
add the first line of the next page.
Is there a way to avoid it?
I have tried to use the ppSummaryBand instead of the footerBand but it seams
to me that there is no way to place it in a predifined place on a page.

Thank you very much for your help

Kindly regards
Nemos
