TOTAL
The TOTAL function is a Report Writer function that returns accumulated
totals. The level number must match the level number of a TOTALS
statement. The level number can be zero. Zero accesses the GRAND TOTALS
statement.
Totals are always returned as REAL or DECIMAL numbers, depending on the
setting of OPTION REAL/DECIMAL in the report subunit. If the current
subunit has a different setting, the value may be converted if used in an
expression.
Syntax
TOTAL (level,sequence)
Parameters
level The summary level number. This is in the range [0, 9].
sequence Indicates which expression in the given TOTALS statement
should be returned. The first expression is sequence
number one. An error occurs if the sequence number is
less than one or greater than the number of expressions
in the TOTALS statement.
Examples
100 Tot = TOTAL(Level1,Seq) !Tot receives the accumulated totals for the
101 !level specified by Level1, and the
102 !expression specified by Seq.
