LM>I am having difficulty with my report specs in Pdox40.  When I generate an
LM>answer table  that contains several groups, I am readily able to place 
group
LM>totals in the report spec.  However, I am unable to make any other use of
LM>those figures (the group totals) such as calculating an average based on 
the
LM>number of iterations within each group against the group total.  I realize
LM>that I can generate answer tables for each group independently and then 
se
LM>Csum and Count to accomplish this, but it beats up my hard drive and takes

Can't you use the same csum / count, etc functions in calculated fields
at each group in your report? Your final group, at Grand Total at report's
end would be what you're looking for, I believe.
