    Question Fields no longer auto calculate in 2010

    I have a database that includes a couple of fields that display a sum of other field within the form. I am thinking the file was created in Access 03 or earlier. The file functioned as normal for while working in 2003 but now that we are in office 2010 the cells will not display the correct value until the form is reopened or printed. If I am printing the form, the screen will show one value but the printed value will be correct. Is there an option to make the field update automatically as I go along like it used to?

    Thanks!

    Hi Rodeoclown,
    Others may disagree with me here, however, I believe the reason you haven't received a response yet is the number of problems could be about infinite. Without more information or an example form to check and see what is happening it is hard to say. Where is the calculation entered in? (Control Source?,VBA?,default value?) Can you post a mock form?
