You can do this fairly easily in a report.
Create a report that uses this table.
In report design view, open the Sorting And Grouping dialog (View menu.)
In the dialog, chose the transaction date field, and in the lower pane set
these properties:
Group Footer Yes
Group On Month
Access adds a new group footer to the report design view. In this group
footer, you can display the total credit for the month with a text box that
has this Control Source:
=Sum([Credit])
and debits:
=Sum([Debit])
You can also get a running balance on the report by using the Running Sum
property of the text box.
You do not store these totals in your database.
