Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

Hello,

I need to make a calculation based on the result of a sum. I created a Text called Text1, then put in the detail band to make the sum of a group {Sum (databand1, myreport.name)}. I created a variable of type Percent and Add a line in after print event, put the variable to receive the value that was printed in Text1. It was so in print after: myVariable = Text1.Text
This not work. How i get a value from Text ?

Rgds,

Hello.

It's not so easy to get data from text components. There are component on report template and on rendered report. Usually there are many instances of one component on the rendered report.
It's better to use the same expression. Or use variables to save data there.

Thank you.

Please, show me an exemple.

I have tried to put the same expression and did not work in the example below.

myvariable = {sum(databand1, myreport.name)}

Hello,

Please try to use the following expression in the Text expression: or in the BeforePrint event: Thank you.

My text no use a field database, use a expression (sum....)

Hello.

Sorry, maybe we don't understand your issue right.
Could you describe it more detailed?

Thank you.
