I copied the following code from the forum, but can't get it to work either. gives #Name? error, Tried
=RunSum(Survey,"SurveyID",[SurveyID],"TVD")
but it puts the form name in backets like this
=RunSum([Survey],"SurveyID",[SurveyID],"TVD"
Function RunSum(F As Form, KeyName As String, KeyValue, _
FieldToSum As String)
'*************************************************
