help with this simple query,,, im just too new with this

[Guest]

simple -----> this is what i can do----result of my query example:

IdContrato sequence wight
1 01 3000
1 02 2000
1 03 1000
2 01 500
2 02 200
3 01 3000
3 02 1000
3 03 500
3 04 200

I need a field that accumulates the weigth for each IDContrato according to
the sequence order... i want it to show me this:

IdContrato sequence wight accumulated
1 01 3000 3000
1 02 2000 5000
1 03 1000 6000
2 01 500 500
2 02 200 700
3 01 3000 3000
3 02 1000 4000
3 03 500 500
3 04 200 700

Actually this is very easy...in a report. It is not so easy in a query and even
if you can construct a query that will do it it will be very inefficient.

Reports are processed sequentially so running sums are easily tallied. Queries
are set-based so running sums have to be done by running correlated sub-queries
(a separate internal query that is executed for each and every row in your main
query's output).

Would a report satisfy your requirements? If so you just need to group on the
IdContrato field and put in a TextBox with a ControlSource of =[wight] and then
set the RunningSum property of that control to "Over Group".

thanks for your answer...
A report is ok... all i need is to show this on a screen. Could you please
be more specific on how to do this using a report.

forget about being more specific Rick..... I used the report and got the
results i needed... thanks for your help.
