  • one joining the text "No. of Customers: " and the viCustCount integer variable (converted to a string); and

  • one joining the text "Total for the Report: " and the vdInvTotal decimal variable (converted to a string).
The Invoice Footer section contains one formula joining the text "No. of Invoices: " and the viInvCount integer variable, and one that will print the vsCustText string variable.
