How get form field data to write to table

[Steve L]

I have a form which is bound to a table. On this form I
have a calculated field. The calculation is the sum of
two other field values. How can I get the value of the
calculated field to write to a specific field in the
table?

You COULD use an update query, but you SHOULD NOT do anything!

Calculated results should not normally be stored in tables - they should be
calcuated as and when required. If you need to use the value anywhere other
than on the form then just create a query the includes the calcuation, and
use that rather than the table.
