Hi all, I am new to libreoffice base, so I decided to ask you an advice. I want to create, in a query, a new column with cumulative sum such as:

A SUM
1 1
2 3
3 7

Could you help me?

Thanks

Moved from Other Things Gentoo to Desktop Environments. Not about Gentoo so it fits better here (I think).

If I understand correctly what you want, then it is pretty easy:

Assuming that the

"A" is in cell A1 and "1" is in cell A2 and "2" is in cell "A3" just write in B2

=sum($A$2:A2)

Then push enter, select the cell again and pull it down by the square in the right bottom corner of the cell.

This is quite good:

SELECT "ID", "Quantita", (SELECT SUM("Quantita") from "Tabella1" WHERE "ID" <= "ID") AS "Running Total"
from "Tabella1"

But as result I get:
1 10
2 10
3 10
4 10

It is not progressive but something must be changed here: WHERE "ID" <= "ID"

This works perfectly

Code:
SELECT
   "A"."ID",
   "A"."Quantita",
   ( SELECT SUM("B"."Quantita")
     From "Tabella1" as "B"
     WHERE "B"."ID" <= "A"."ID") AS "Running Total"
From "Tabella1" as "A"
