Normally, you wouldn't want to store calculated values, because you should always just do the calculations whenever you need those values.

Agree, in this case I have to do Calculations from quite a few table then save them into a temporary table for report purposes, then deleted again

use an append query to your table, then cross tab it you get a horizontal summary
