Creating a formula in a query

[Nats]

Hi guys,

Please would some be able to help me?

I have created a query (its a holiday chart). The table the query is created from shows dates taken in each of the 12 months under the 'month name' column and then in the next column it has the total for each of the individual month.

For example,

Field 1 (Jan)
Field 2 (total Jan)
Field 3 (Feb)
Field 4 (Total Feb)
Field 5 (March)
Field 6 (Total March)

and so on.

Then at the end I have a field for amount left. So what I need the query to do is add all the numbers in each individuals record in all the 'total month' column and then show this in another column which is my 'amount taken' column.

Thank you in advance for your help.

If I understand you correctly; try in the next available field

Amount Taken:[Field2]+[Field4]+[Field6] etc
