Calculating two fields on based of the value of one field

[Guest]

My table has a amount field which contains Credits and debits. I have another
field which has two values C for Credit and D for Debit.
I would like to sum up both credits and debits into two different fields.
How can I accomplish that? Thanks.

Credits = DSum("Amount", "MyTable","AnotherField='C'")
Debits = DSum("Amount","MyTable","AnotherField='D'")

Note the single quotes around the C and D in the third parameter. Be sure to
use you own field and table names.

Thanks Carl but I forget clarify my question. First of all, here is my SQL
Statement :

SELECT tblAtlantic.[Cardholder Name], "************" &
Right(tblAtlantic.[Card Number],4) AS [Secured Number],
tblAtlantic.[Accounting Code], tblAtlantic.[Merchant Name] & " " &
tblAtlantic.[MCC code] AS Merchant, Left(tblAtlantic![Posting Date],4) & "/"
& Mid(tblAtlantic![Posting Date],5,2) & "/" & Right(tblAtlantic![Posting
Date],2) AS [Formatted Posting Date], tblAtlantic.[Gross Amount],
tblAtlantic.[National Tax], tblAtlantic.[Net Amount], Left(tblAtlantic![Cycle
Date],4) & "/" & Mid(tblAtlantic![Cycle Date],5,2) & "/" &
Right(tblAtlantic![Cycle Date],2) AS [Formatted cycle Date],
IIf(Left(tblAtlantic.[Gross Amount],1)="-","C","D") AS [Credit Status],
DSum(tblAtlantic.[Gross Amount],"tblAtlantic",[Credit Status]='C') AS [Total
Credits], DSum(tblAtlantic.[Gross Amount],"tblAtlantic",[Credit Status]='D')
AS [Total Debits]
FROM tblAtlantic;

I am using this query for a report and on my report I need two separate
totals for credits and debits. Any help will greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Is that query working? If so, it looks like you already have your Credit and
Debit totals. What problem are you having?

Credits = DSum("Amount", "MyTable","AnotherField='C'")
Debits = DSum("Amount","MyTable","AnotherField='D'")
