Ok my goal is to have a calculation in a query that includes a bunch of addition, division, and multiplication. (It uses 10 pieces of data) I tryed typing it in the expression builder but it doesn't work. I don't know if I am setting it up wrong or putting it in the wrong spot or what. I've tried some different things and I either get a blank box in that field or I get a syntax error. Also is there any way I can put the info received by the equation into a field in my table? Thanks
 
Hi!

The information you provide is not enough but I think it is not working because you are not using maths rules properly.
Is many ways you can put the info received by the equation into a field and I give you here one example:

Dim dbs As Database, rst As Recordset
Set dbs = currentDb
Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset(SELECT * tblTest)
With rst
.edit ‘ or .addNew
rst!number= (number1 * number2 / number3) + number4
.update
end with
rst.Close
Set dbs = Nothing

Hope this can help you
