For example, you may have a parent form which is a sales order, with a sub form containing the repeating order detail lines. Within the order detail, you could have a line total cost for each item. You may then want to total up all line item costs for each record as a grand total on the sub-form. In this example, you would use the DSUM function to calculate this value.
Returns a count the number of sub form elements for g where h is not empty.
| Syntax | Where | Result |
|---|---|---|
| DCOUNT(g, h) | g is a sub form unique name h is a unique name for an item on the sub form | A number |
| Example | Result |
|---|---|
| =DCOUNT('Parts', 'Part reference') | Returns the number of records containing a non-empty 'Parts reference' within the sub-form 'Parts'. |
Returns the sum of all of the sub-form elements h for each record in the sub-form g. h must be a widget containing a number.
