    Finding the average

    Thank you, I tried the help before but couldn't find the right thing. How can I format it so that there are only two digits after the decimal place. There are ten digits right now. I went into the properties and changed it in there but it didn't work. Any suggestions??

    field automatically fill in from field on other form

    "You could also set a global variable when you enter the data into the first form and then use the variable in the On Open event of the second form instead of using OpenArgs. " Could explain this approach to me a little more. Does the form have to be open? What code do I use? Thanks!!

    field automatically fill in from field on other form

    There is a field on a form that I would like to carry over onto another form. Let's see if I can explain this. The user opens the form and fills in all the date. Then I have another form (based off of a different table than the first form, both tables have the same field for the primary key)...

    Adding data to beginnig of field

    I am not sure if I understand what you mean by this: The next possible problem could arise from the way your combo boxes are set. Is the bound column actually equaling A or is an A just being displayed? I created the combo box using the wizard and put A and R as the two options. My email is...

    ctrl alt del, prevent from closing form

    While that does make sense, it is not an option because of the way the database is set up (it is done wrong and I know that now). I have used an autonumber field, so once info is placed into one field that record is begun in the table and the number is assigned. That is why once a user starts...

    ctrl alt del, prevent from closing form

    I have placed code on the Unload event of a form to check if certain fields have data in them (once the user has started entering in data), if not the form will not close. However, I have realized that ctrl alt del, allows them to close the form with only half the data in it. This is causing...
