[mv] Acuumulte into variable.....

["Tal Hart (TelNET)" <tal@telnet.co.il>]

******    message to minivend-users from "Tal Hart (TelNET)" <tal@telnet.co.il>     ******

I cant get this simplest thing to work....

For each product we have a 'bonus' Field & 'Miles' field , which is a number
of bonus credits/Miles a user gets when he orders it...

Inside a search list, I would like to calculate the Total bonus points/Miles
for the products in the list..

Simply, i wish to open 2 new variable, and on each loop add the 'bonus' /
'miles' values to this variables,so i can display at the end
Total credits for these items = XXXX
Total Miles = XXXX

I cant get this to work..
whats the corerct syntax for that ??
