    Add Calculated Field to Table


    I am calulating a field fldD. I have added the following to the Control Source of fldD "=[fldA]+[fldB]+[fldC]"

    Can I save the value that is created back to the table i.e. fldD will be the value of =[fldA]+[fldB]+[fldC]
    Anyone know if this is possible?

    Why do you want to save the calculation to a field in a table?
    It is usually better to do the calculation whenever and wherever it is required.
