discount on a form

[peljo via AccessMonster.com]

Let me tell you what i need to do,i stil do not know how to begin.I need to
build a control on the form where i could write down percents.On entering the
percent, the field Grossprice should be deducted with this percent.For exmple
if grossprice is 100, i could play with entering different discounts and see
quickly the results.Which is the best way to do it?

Open the Northwind sample database.
Open the Order details subform in design view.

It has a Discount field, and shows the discounted amount.
This is calculated in the source query

Follow that example.
