    Question

    How to apply criteria on a column in a Prepackaged Access Reports query that has a "Total:" row?

    Answer

    When you have a "Total:" row, and want to apply a criteria, use the "Where" in the "Group By" dropdown.

    Let's say we want to limit FINE_FEE_BALANCE by CREATE_DATE.

    After adding your "Total:" row using the Sigma Tool  clipboard_ed7c00e7592965968bb373580854e23c7.png  you need to select Where from the dropdown as shown below:

    When you select "Where", Access will uncheck the box in the "Show:" row because it doesn't make sense to display a field you are grouping by.

    After selecting "Where", then add your criteria (for example, as you see below, where the fine was charged before 1/1/2000):

The above has been posted for informational purposes.  Voyager-L and Developer Network are useful resources for finding helpful custom SQL or obtaining assistance from peers in troubleshooting custom queries.
