Just create a textbox on the form and put THIS.Value=THISFORM.Text1.Value+THISFORM.Text2.Value... in its Refresh method. Make sure you refresh the form or that text box every time the user changes a value in one of the textboxes you are summing (you could put it in the LostFocus or InteractiveChange).

>on a form I have textboxes which correspond exactly to fields in the database. jan,feb,mar,apr...dec, all numerical. Is there a way I can have these summed up and the value placed in another textbox?
>Just wondering.
