Dick,

If you can move the code to the LostFocus() the value will have been put in the field of the RecordSource. You can also do a REPLACE inside the Valid() if you aren't having the Valid() prevent illegal values.

>From within the valid of the grid element being altered, I need to post to a variable the sum of the values of that field of all the records in the grid.

>I'm getting a total that includes the value before the change. I want to have a total that includes the value after the change.
