interact with every detail row

Hi;
is there a way to interact with every detail row that is about to print?;
for acumulating values or perform special validations
TIAIf I understand you correctly, you could use ReportItems![fieldname].value.
fieldname would be the name of the textbox(es) you are interested in
interacting with.

lets say i have table1 with accounts
--
TABLE1
accountid balance
1 10000
2 20000
and table2 with debits and credits
--
TABLE2
accountid debit credit
1 450
1 300
1 50
2 1000
2 3450
and table3 with account names
--
TABLE3
accountid accountname accountnumber
1 AAAAAAAA 3243223432
2 BBBBBBBBB 9832798273
i need an output like this
---
account
3243223432 AAAAAAAAA initial balance debit credit
final balance
10000
450 10450
10450
300 10150
10150
50 10100
account
9832798273 BBBBBBBBB initial balance debit credit
final balance
20000 1000
21000
21000
3450 17550

Or change your SQL to do this for you, which would probably be the easiest
way.

statment.
On RS, all i need is to define a variable, initializing it with INITIAL
BALANCE for each account, suming each debit and subtrating each credit and
print th FINAL BALANCE for each record.
It is a simple task on most of other report tools, but i dont know how to do
it on RS... im very frustrated with this tool!

join them and create a query by selecting the required columns and a
calculated column of (balance +debit - credit) will give you Final balance.
If this is what you want, do it and let me know whether it works.
