sum with if statement

20
Hello,

Im trying to use an If statement to do calculations. What im trying to do is this,

i have 3 text boxes. One called style, quantity and sum. What i would like is when a certain style is entered, then in the some field it displays an answer from a sum.

The statement i have been using is
If Style = "Crew" Then
Sum = "Quantity*0.35"
End If

But i dont get the answer of the sum, instead i get "Quantity*0.35"
Where im i going wrong? Can anyone help me please

First of all make sure Sum and Quantity are both defined as numbers.
When you enclose it in quotes it implies it's a string (text). Only Style should be text and as you don't need quotes around numbers, your formula should read as shown below

<code>vb
If Style = "Crew" Then
Sum = Quantity*0.35
End If
</code>
