Sorry for the misspelling. As for the frmPartDetailSu bfrm1, that is
the name of a subform that is on the main form. The subform has the
Part Description, Unit Cost, and a couple other columns of data
related to the specific part number. The subform is linked to the Main
Form via the Part Number. The Subform is populated when a part number
is entered in the main form.
Like I said in the original post this calculation has worked for a
number of years. Nothing has changed in the database. The only that
has changed is some of the users have been upgraded to Access 2003.
Users that have either Access 2000. or Access XP have no trouble at
all with this calculation function.
Thanks,
Del

In your extended cost calculation, Quantity is misspelled. Is
frmPartDetailSu bfrm1 the subform control on the main form and not the name
of the subform? frmPartDetailSu bfrm1should be referred to from the Forms
collection like this:
Forms!frmPartDe tailSubfrm1

news:c2******** *************** **@posting.goog le.com... Thanks in advance for any help.
I have a database that was created in Access 2000. Several users have
been upgraded to Access 2003. Since upgrading to 2003 we have noticed
that some of the calculated fields are not being populated. The
database is a samll invoicing database on the form and report we have
columns call Unit Cost. This is the actual cost of the part and is
pulled from our parts master table and is displayed in a sub form and
subreport, linked to the master form and report by Part Number. On the
form and report we have a column call Quantity which is the number of
the parts ordered by the customer. We then have a calculated column
called Extended Cost. The Extended Cost has the following
calculation...
=([Quantitly1] * [frmPartDetailSu bfrm1]![Unit Cost])
This calculation has worked fine from the time the database was
created several years ago, until now. When the database is run on a
machine with Access 2003 this calculation doesn't work. However the
machines that have Access 2000, or XP the calculation works fine.
Any ideas????
Thanks again.
