Hello,

 
Is it possible to share a variable between two subreports that are contained on one main report ?
 
Example:
 
Sub Report 1 has a formula field = Total Entered
Sub Report 2 has a formula field = Total Placed
 
On Sub Report 2 I want to show Total Entered - Total Placed
 
Thanks

It certainly is.
 
in subreport 1, in your formula field declare a shared variable:
 
              Shared Numbervar TotalEntered;
 
and have your variable equal the result of your formula:
 
              TotalEntered := formula
 
in subreport 2, you can then reference your shared variable:
 
              Shared Numbervar TotalEntered;
 
              TotalEntered - {@TotalPlaced}
 
Hope that helps.

There are 10 types of people. Those that understand binary, and those that don't.
