Hi,
I've a block having a number field(base table item with multiple record displayed) & on the same block i'm having a summary field TOTAL(non base table item) which displays above base table field's total sum.

Actually i want to validate this TOTAL field to be exact 100.
i've written validate trigger on TOTAL but it seems to be ignored.
Also created NEW/Item/Form/Record instance trigger but in vain.

anybody have idea how do i validate this field(base table item with multiple record)?

Thanks in Advance!

hi,
what you can do is this:
select the item to be of type sum in the property palette of the item.for the data block,set "Pre-compute summary" to ON and then write the trigger you want for the total..this should work.

thanks
