It maintains that value in the shared main report field and calculation until the next non-zero value in the subreport.  I have placed an initialization formula into multiple steps in the main report and in the first step of the subreport,  testing for a location that will reset the shared field.

Example:

[strong]Record1[/strong]: Main report: Score1 = 755, Subreport Score2 = 822, Shared field Score2 in Main Report = 822, Calculation: If Score1 > Score 2,then Score1, else Score2.

[strong]Record2[/strong]:  Main Report:  Score1 692, Subreport Score2 = 0/Null, Shared field Score2 in Main Report = [strong]822[/strong].  Did [em]NOT[/em] pull back 0/Null for Score2.

Should I have to initialize?  If so, where?

Thanks!!
