Adding Totals on a report

Hello.
I am running Access 2003 and I need to total up a field on a report. It is a
sales and inventory database. I have two fields amongst many. One field is
called "Quantity" and the other is called "Price". I have both fields in the
"Detail" section of the report and in the "Item Footer" I have a Sum field
that adds up the quantity and in the Report Footer I have a grand total field
that sums up the total quantity (these two sum fields were created by the
wizard). I am not too worried about the quantity sum, what I really want is
to Sum all of the money made, example if I have 10 rows with a total quantity
of 1 for each row and a price of 1 dollar for each row, I would like to have
a field in the "Item Footer" that totals the total for each item and a grand
total in the Report footer.

Two questions:
1. How do I get this to work
2. Do know of any web page that explains in detail the best way to create a
Sales/Inventory database?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Iram,
  Using the query behind your report, and using the query design grid, add
a calculated column like this...
       LineTotal : Price * Quantity
  LineTotal is now a bound field, and can be placed on the report to show
the line totals, and can be added up in ANY group or report footer with...
       =Sum(LineTotal)
