No. It would display multiple times; once for each of the normal body lines.

  Nicolas,

   

  I believe part of the problem is the Trailing Grand Summary line in your 
layout.  When editing an existing record or adding a new one, the Trailing 
Grand Summary line is hidden.  When you click in an open space or go to Preview 
mode,  the Trailing Grand Summary line reappears.  The value is being 
recalculated, just not shown.   Can you move your summary field to the body 
part?

  I am using FMP v5.5 in Windows XP pro.

  How do I calculate the sum of a column everytime a user enters a change 
anywhere in that column? The layout is in browse mode and I am using a Trailing 
Grand Summary field. 

   

  If I click on the Trailing field or enter Preview mode, the calculation 
happens. But I would like the layout to behave like a spreadsheet where all 
totals change when any item is changed.
