    Calculate Value Using Previous Record Data

    Hi Everyone,

    I'm looking for some help with] referring to a previous record in a form and performing calculations with that value.

    I've uploaded a sample DB to better understand what I refer to.

    In the form, a user can adjust the "Percent" cell percentage to what they like. The neighboring fields, "Contributions" and "Interest" automatically recalculate new values based on the user input for the "Percent" field.

    The "Fund Balance" value is the SUM of the previous record's "Fund Balance", previous "Contributions" and previous "Interest" fields.

    How can I get the "Fund Balance" field to automatically recalculate using data from the previous record's form calculation???



    I am a noob so any help is appreciated, thanks.

    I can't view your db until after Feb 22.

    Why do you need summary calcs on form? Summary calcs are best done on report.
