1. I have a form and would like to make a textbox have the following text without having to put the same text in all records.

[1B][02][01][41][03][01][30][30][30][31][30][30][30][30][30][35][30][31][30][30][30][30][30][30][30][31]

Lets call this field "MessageInfo"

2. On the same form I would like to have a text field with the following formular:
="MessageInfo" + "[0D]"

It would read as: [1B][02][01][41][03][01][30][30][30][31][30][30][30][30][30][35][30][31][30][30][30][30][30][30][30][31][0D]

I hope you can help

Thanking you in advance

On you first record manually type in your string. Then use the code in the article below to add it whenever you open a new record.

To add the [OD] use Me![AnotherField] = Me![MessageInfo] & "[0D]". Trigger this code in some appropriate place on your form.
