You could do an SQL select, but the code is more complex!

Watch out! If eof() before the sum, the goto will throw a
"Record is out of range." error. To avoid this, I have a couple of
routines that save position and restore position, roughly
saverecno()
if eof()
return 0
else
return recno()
restorerecno(position)
if position#0
goto position
else
goto bottom
skip
return
