Calculated field based on values of different tables

With the help of this NG I got the following to work in a calculated field
in a form:

=DCount("*";"MyTable1";"MyField1='abc' AND MyField2='J'")

I would like to make another calculated field one the form with the
difference that MyField2 now comes from another table linked 1x1 to
MyTable1. Is this possible in a calculated field?

Thanks in advance,
john
