    What is the name of the event that triggers the execution of a formula?

    A simpler method would be to place a command button on your form. Label it "Calculate". In the code for the button, enter the math you wish to perform. Example: If [Subtotal] > 0 then [Tax] = ([Text2]*.07) If the tax is 7 percent [Total] = ([Subtotal]+[Tax]) Endif

    Any Solicitors on the forum in the uk

    Actually the situations are not that disimilar. The President gets the White House as part of the job. You can't take over by having your mail forwarded as there is already a sitting tennant. Interesting concept however. Impeachment by landlord and tennant law.

    Are you an atheist?

    Alisa: You gave yourself away when you failed to captialize God. Regardless of your beliefs, every style book in the English language requires a capital "G" when writing that word. Where did we come from? What was the origin of the Big Bang? Did we materialize from matter in space? (in that...

    The reason why the NASA reports are used in the news is because the news providers don't have anyone on staff to rebut them. They would have to hire a special space consultant and pay him/her. Why bother. The viewers don't know any more about it than they do.

    Have no idea which PM said it but here goes: "If you want a better Cabinet, give me better wood to build it with". The main problem with standing for public office these days is the scrutiny you must survive in order to get elected. You could be in your 40's but somthing that you did in your...

    It has been quite sometime since the British could refer to anyone as a "colonial", with the exception of Gibralter. The Empire is gone Col. "Canada is unique in the world. It's the only country in history that got it's independence by by asking for it...nicely" Northrop Frye.

    I never made it to Europe until a few years ago,after the Euro was established. My wife, who is Austrian is a seasoned traveller. She loves to tell the stories of the old days when you would travel to several countries in Europe and have to change money at each stop. It seems the old Austrian...

    Grumpy old moans

    That was a joke. I'm sure the roundabout was invented long before the traffic signal. I was driving in France last year and a number of the roundabouts just outside of towns had traffic signals. You would think one or the other would be enough.

    I always thought "Match of the Day" was the longest running programme in the world. Followed closely by "Hockey Night in Canada" (or La Soiree de Hockey if you're a Habs fan).
