Look at the data tab of the properties of the calculated field. I am not looking myself just this minute, but one of the properties should be "=me.litres * me.price"). Actually, I am a little hazy about what you want to do, and if I have not answered you adequately you should rephrase your question.

Hi,

If you want to store the values in a table, you have to make fields in the table where you want to store the data. Than you have to put that field in your form and on the default-value of that field you write =[Litres]*[price per litre]

I hope this answers your question, so not just post again with more details.

Sabine
