TOTAL

Syntax:
TOTAL field-name[,P][;field-name{,P}][;field-name{,P}]

Where:
P = print a message (string) on the total line

Placement:
Place the TOTAL command after the REPORT command and immediately after the PRINT command containing the fields you wish to total.

Discussion:
The TOTAL command produces grand total, subtotals, and column totals.
Follow the TOTAL command with the field-name or expression you wish to total.
You can also use the optional "P" parameter to print a message or string value along with the total in the report.

You can use the BREAK and TOTAL commands together without a PRINT command to produce summary reports.
A summary report provides one total line each time the data in the break field changes.

Line continuation

To continue the TOTAL command to the next line, end the line with a ";" and continue on the next line.
