shared variable:
group header 2:
shared numbervar absence:=0;
"" //hide the zero

detail:
shared numbervar absence;
if fault then absence := absence + 1; //i don't know what makes a fault
""//hide the increasing number

group footer 2:
shared numbervar totAbsence;
shared numbervar absence;
if absence >= 3 then totAbsence := totAbsence + 1;
"" // hide the incrementing total

grand total display:
shared numbervar totAbsence

HTH

ahh...there you go with those running totals ;)
one of these days I'll master them

probably 2 running totals, one as is...grand total.
the other would reset every group...place in the group footer.

não sei como fazer.  =(

Poderia fazer o passo a passo como você fez anteriormente?

I still can not do.

I would have to create the same formulas?
------
shared variable:
group 2 header:
shared absence numbervar: = 0;
"" / / Hide the zero

detail:
shared numbervar absence;
then if fault absence: absence = + 1 / / i do not know what makes the fault
"" / / hide the Increasing number

group 2 footer:
shared numbervar totAbsence;
shared numbervar absence;
if absence> = 3 then totAbsence: totAbsence + = 1;
"" / / Hide the full incrementing

grand full display:
shared numbervar totAbsence
-----

  and only change the positioning of the formula "grand full display:
shared numbervar totAbsence "putting her in group 1?
