You could create a pre-processed total that is the minimum of the field you are sorting/grouping by and then use that total in a calculated field to grab the other values that need to go on the footer.____Kathleen__R&R Support

Sorry Kathleen, I have not explained myself very well____the enteries in the from and to fields will be the first and last enteries in the database.
