How to display the total of an order in a form

In an order system, there are tables of customers, products, orders, and order details, with the main fields listed as follows:

tblCostomer: CustomerID, CustomerName, ...
tblProduct: ProductID, ProductName, ...
tblOrder: OrderID, CustomerID, OrderDate, ...
tblOrderDetail: OrderID, ProductID, UnitPrice, Amount, Total, ...

I have created a query "qryTotalByOrder" which will sum up the total for each order by grouping corresponding products in that order:

qryTotalByOrder: CustomerID, OrderID, OrderDate, Total

I would like to add an unbound text box in a form " which will display the Total of a particular order by entering the orderID as a parameter. What do I need to put in the Source of Data of the textbox? Thanks.

Hi. The domain lookup function DLookup will do this for you. Assuming the OrderID field is numeric, enter

If the order ID is a string, you will need single quotes on either side of its value:
