Calculating and Saving w/ Textbox

[Patrick]

I have a form where I calculate some date differences for
things being late using textboxes. Well if I put the
calculation in the control source section, how do I then
save that calculated value in the appropriate field? Is
there a better way to do this? Any info would be great.

Thanks,
Patrick

Why would you want to save it?
If you can compute the days late today, you can compute the same value
next month or next year.
Don's save the computation.
Save the 2 dates.
Re-compute when needed.

Well I guess I don't have to save it. But I would still
like to. I will see what I can figure out.

Thanks
