Hi,

I have a query (MonthlyInputQry) which calculates the total input into a production process by month (where month is a number 1-12) and there is a year (2013, 2014, etc). This query is based off a table (InputTbl) which records each individual order which goes through the process and then adds up the combined weight for all orders in the month.

I also have a table (MonthlyCostsTbl) where the costs per month of the process are displayed, and on this table there is a space for to input the monthly input as calcuated by the previous query (with the aim to find the cost p/kg each month)

At the moment, at the end of each month I have been looking at the value contained within the query for the applicable month (so March 2014 would be Month = 3; Year = 2014) and copying and pasting this value into the table.

Is there a way in which I could get this value in the table to automatically update, either in the form of a running total or at the end of the month? Either from the query itself or from the original table of inputs.

Thank you!
 
Why would you want to store Calculated Values in a table.

Actually thinking about it I wasn't sure, so tried to run everything through a query instead and it works much better, thanks.
