I have a report which sums charges for customer in the detail section which
is set to visible = no so all you see is the totals for each customer. I
would like to sort the report using the calculated field in the detail group
footer. I seem to remember this is possible but can't fond out how to do it.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi Mike

You would be best doing the calculation in the query.

Like this
Sorting:[TableName]![FieldABC] + [TableName]![FieldXYZ]

Then insert [Sorting] into the report (set to visible = No if you want)

Use the sorting grouping option to sort on this
 
Brilliant thanks
