    Running sum problem

    I Googled for this one and didn't find anything.

    I'm doing a simple running sum:
    * put a text field in the detail band
    * name it txtRunningSum
    * set ControlSource to =1
    * set Visible = False
    * no grouping in the report
    * set to Over All (there's no grouping in the report)
    * in the report footer add a reference textbox with its ControlSource set to
    = [txtRunningSum] & " Items"

    If I set txtRunningSum Bring To Front, the reference box always comes up
    short by 6 items. The counter sums up correctly, but the reference to it
    stops at the value showing at the top of the last page.

    But if I move it out from behind the other control in the Detail band, the
    whole thing works.

    Is it a bug or a feature? ha!
