How do I get calculated data in a form to show up in a report?

Greetings,

I created a form with income calculations to determine eligibility for an
education program. The report generated from this form does not, however,
display the calcuated values. The report needs to be saved into the students'
program file (pdf).

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
 
In what way is the report generated from the form? Is it a bound form? If
so, use the same method on the report as on the form to get the calculation
to appear on the report. How are you calculating on the form? What is the
record source for the form and for the report?

If it is not a bound form, reference the values on the form. For instance,
a text box on the report could have as its Control Source:
=Forms!FormName!ControlName

Use the actual form and control name in place of FormName and ControlName.

As forms do not 'contain' data (tables do), simply re-do the
calculation directly in the report.
