7.85 KEEP_TOTAL

Note: Usage options

The KEEP_TOTAL command is used to keep the total of field(s) in another field.

Note: RDMLX Fields cannot be used with this command.

The KEEP_TOTAL command is only valid within SELECT or SELECTLIST command loops, because the processing logic used is implicitly linked to the SELECT / SELECTLIST loop logic.

Normally the KEEP_TOTAL command is entered directly after the SELECT or SELECTLIST command. However, there are specific exceptions to this. Refer to the examples section for more details.
