Running Total not working correctly

Question

I have a running total setup inside a for loop, the problem is that the running total isn't "running" . Below is the syntax
<?for-each@section:xdoxslt:foreach_number($_XDOCTX,1,3,1)?>
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,’DUPE’, xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, ‘DUPE’ ) +1) ?>
<?for-each-group@section:/ TMP008/LIST_G_ORDER_BY/G_ORDER_BY/LIST_G_INVOICE/G_INVOICE;G_INVOICE?>
TABLE HERE+_
<?end for-each?><?end for-each?>
I am using this loop to print 3 copies of an invoice, then by using the running total I am trying to call a unique footer on each copy by having the following code in the footer.
<?choose:?>
<?when: xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,’DUPE’)=”1”?>
<?call:Footer1?>
<?end when?>
<?when: xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,’DUPE’)=”2”?>
<?call:Footer2?>
<?end when?>
<?otherwise:?>
<?call:Footer3?>
<?end otherwise?>
<?end choose?>
What is happening is the first copy is using Footer 3 and the other 2 copies are using Footer 1. FYI at the top of the rtf I have a import statement and set_variable statement as shown below:
<?import:file:///C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\MasterFooter.rtf?>
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,’DUPE’, 0)?>
The variable DUPE is getting the value 1 on every page which I don't quite understand.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can attach the xml file and rtf if so desired. Thanks

Answer 1

First initialise a variable and assign it value zero (with this code..)
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'RunTotVar', 0)?>
then embed the following code within the for loop where you want the running total displayed..
the code below shows a running total for the xml field INVOICE_AMT
<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'RunTotVar', xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'RunTotVar') + INVOICE_AMT)?><?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'RunTotVar')?>
Hope this helps. its from one of the examples provided with the template builder for word.
