Doesn't seem to work either.
In the end, I wimped out and just wrote a Private function within
the form to retrieve the total by banging some SQL up against the
local work table where the detail lines live. Doesn't seem to
take any appreciable amount of clock time so I guess I'll just
leave it at that.
