Hello,

I am designing my first database, for client billing and I am trying to
figure out how to automatically markup the cost in a field.
What I mean to do is have a field "COURIER COST" where I can type the cost
ie "$10.00) and it will automatically multiply the number I enter by 1.5,
giving me the cost that I will charge my clients ie. $15.00

I would greatly appreciate any help on this!

Thanks,
Adam
 
Adam,

you can use the AfterUpdate event procedure for COURIER COST
Between Private Sub and End Sub, insert the following:

Me.[COURIER COST] = Me.[COURIER COST] * 1.5

HTH,
Brian
