Hi folks,
I am a newbie to Access and so struggling with something that I'm sure should be more straight-forward than I am making it.
I have a simple database of 2 tables. Clients table and Tax Returns table.
I am trying to add some automation to the form used for inputting the tax return info by updating the value of one date with to be 28 days after another. So [Field_B]=[Field_A]+28. How to use this formula is my basic dilemma.
Initially I tried setting the default value of Field_B but discovered you cant do it like that. Then I started looking at calcuated queries and i can get this to create a new field in the table with the updated dates in it but I cant work out how to put this on the form?
Lastly I tried to go into the properties of Field B on the form by setting the default value there but it doesnt seem to update the form/table?
Where am I going wrong here?!
Many thanks in advance
