I am trying to sum two fields of the same query.
Any one can help me?

Regards,
John
 
Yes.
Can you provide any more details or do we have to guess your field and table
names,...
 
It is a query of two reports.
The query consist 4 field where the first two are units
and the second are values. I want to create in the sema
query a 5d field which will sum up the two field with
values. How can I do that?
Thanks in advance.

I am having trouble understanding this. Reports are based on queries rather
than "query of two reports". Maybe you should enter a few records into an
email and how you want them to appear so we can better help.
 
My apologie I want it to say 'Tables' instead of 'Reports'.
In this query, I want to create fields with the "Sum of
[field2]+[field2]and [field3]+[field3]:

Table1 |Table2
Field1|Field2|Field3|Field1|Field2|Field3|Units |Values|
xxx | 2.5| 3.0|xxxx | 2.5| 3.0| 5.0| 6.0|
------ + ------ = ------
...... + ...... = .......


I hope that it is now clear.

Regardsx,
John
 
You can't have two fields in a report's record source that have the same
exact name. How are you doing this?
If they are different, try:
=Sum([Field2a]+[Field2b])
=Sum([Field3a]+[Field3b])
