Calculate an average in a field

[mechanic]

Can an average be calculated in a field in a single record from 3 other fields in same record. If so where does the formula belong?
example field name are as follows Test1 Test2 Test3 Average



31.5 30.6 32.4 31.5

It depends on where you want to use it. If you are thinking about putting the average in a table, don't. It's bad practice - calculate the average in a query when you need it.

In a form or report, you can use the formula for the average as a control source.
