hi,

It's my first time in your forum.

I have problem with Charts in CR X. I use formula and this forumla use formula too with Shared variable. I have found results for the formula but in charts the result is always equal 0. Cry

So the 3 formula :

first formula :

Shared numbervar var1:=0;

second formula put in details :

Shared numbervar var1;
var1:=var1+sum({table1.col1},{group2})+max({table2.col2},{group2});

Formula put in footer group and in chart

Shared numbervar var1;
var1


Why the formula in chart is always equal to 0 and the formula in footer groop is superior to 0?

thanks for help...

This is due to the formula being calculated in the second pass and the chart is also calculated in the second pass. So when the chart gets the shared variable value then its zero b/c it hasn't been calculated yet. Search on 'chart' for a post in last week's questions. I posted a bunch of chart/formula related links to give you more info.
