Is it even possible to have more than one record source for a field without
using a subform?

I have a text box on my form that I want to draw a dollar value from a table.
Then, below it I want a text box that draws a dollar value from a query.
Finally, I was going to have a third box below the two that would subtract
the lower dollar value from the top dollar value and display it's value in
the third box. Is this possible? I have really been struggling on this, and
even though it seems easy, it isn't. Thanks.
 
No, it's not possible to have multiple record sources for a single form.

Can you create a query that determines both dollar values for the first 2
text boxes? You shouldn't be storing the calculated value from the 3rd text
box, so that shouldn't matter.
