help calculating fields in Access
Hi,
I've just started out on Access. I'm wanting to take two fields in a table, 'net' and 'tax', convert 'tax' to a percent, add it to 'net' and then place the result in a 'gross' field in the same table... ?? It's seems a simple thing to do, but I can't work out how to do it. Help appreciated ASAP!! Thankyou, DANIEL |

Help Calculating
Do you really need to store the result? It makes more sense to create the calculation on the form or report at runtime.

One Way to do it...
Either in a query or the control sourse of a unbouned text box you can use =FormatPercent([tax])+[net] if you just have to have a field in the table you can run a update query to update the data for the gross field then use a bound text field to calculate the in coming new data.
I hope this helps... |
