Text Box Value used in a Control

[Guest]

I'm having trouble writing a control that performs some simple math operations.

For some reason my text box value in the control "= [length]" equals the
number of the Key ID form the table that the value is stored in.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

if your controlSource --> = [length]

that means that you are achoing the results of a control
whose NAME property is "length" (without the quotes)

if you are seeing the ID field, perhaps that is the control
whose NAME property is length ... if so, you should change it!

Warm Regards,
