Hi all!
Is there anyway I can override a value in a calculated field on a
form? For example:
I have a form which displays the following fields based on a query:
Premium Due field has the value of 12,527.75 in it.
Brokerage Due field is the calculated field which multiplies a factor
of 0.10 (10%) with the value in the Premium field. In this case, the
value in this field will automatically calculate to 1,252.775. I want
to be able to have the ability to be able to change the value in this
field to 1,253.00 or 1,252.78. The reason I want to be able to do so
is for accounting purposes. The Brokerage Due is often different from
what is actually paid due to rounding error. Therefore, I need to be
able to edit this to reflect actual payments.
Thanks for your help in advance...

I assume that brokerage due is calculated in the after update event of the
Premium Due control. If the Brokerage due control is not locked you should
be able to edit it - No?

Kevin,
The form is based on a Query in which the Brokerge due is calculated
within the uery. In other words, there is no After Update event. Any
suggestions?
Thanks!

I might have two columns in the query;CF (calced field) and IF (input
field). When I open the form, the default value of IF would be CF.
Drop for IF and CF on the form. Make CF visible = False.
Salad,
Thanks for the suggestion but i rather have one field. There's got to
be an easier way to do this. Thanks!

Eliminating the need for an override. Create a rounding function and use it
in your query.
dblRoundBrokera geDue([Premium Due] * 0.10)

You don't update calculated fields manually.
Since you are looking for a method to update the field but don't want to
mess with the calculated field's result perhaps you can modify the
Premium Due field so that it forces a correct calculation. IOW, make
the PremiumDue the calcuated field.
For example, plug in a value for where the calced field is. Then it
gives you the Premium Due result. It won't be what you want, but it
matches your calculation.
Good luck in your quest.

Adding an actual paid field would solve you problem and provide useful
payment information without a override of the calculated value.

What you "want" cannot be done. A field in a query and thus a control on a
form is either bound to a calculation (not editable) or to a field in a
table (editable). One control and/or query field cannot do both at the same
time.

Hi,
I have a form with a couple of calculated fields.
I want to put some code into the 'Form-Load' event to set various
object states on the form, depending on the value of these fields.
The problem is that the calculated fields are blank for a split second
when the form opens, and then the value appears. This makes any tests
fail. How can I test against these fields once the calculation has been
done ?
