    Mirroring Field Details

    Table 'Products' consists of 6 fields 'A,B,C,D,E,X'




    ---------------------------------


    Field A,B,C,D,E are user input fields


    Field Y (not bound to the table) is locked and sums together fields A,B,C,D,E


    My question:


    Field X is A locked field but needs to be automatically be filled with the same value (mirrored) of field Y... how do i do this?


    ... guys please?

    In the Control Source for Field X, type = [Field Y]

    Hi Alan, thanks for your reply.


    However a new problem arise. Doing so i will destroy the link of 'field X' with the table (yes, in the form view the value is mirrored but table 'products' 'field X' detail is empty. I need the value to be copied from 'field Y' to 'field X' while information is auto filled in the table)


    Thanks
    Clara
