Im trying to add numbers from two fields into another field, and i have tried
the help file and it gives me an error still.

ex: =[Value]+[Cost]

but that wont work for some reason
 
Are you performing the calculation in a text box? Are both fields the same
data type? Remember that you don't want to store calculated values, but
rather have the calculation performed on the fly in a text box or query.
