You missed giving the OP another piece of your "Free Advise"; you didn't tell him that he should use object names that are 50+ characters long!! Let go of your anger at being told you were wrong, you're letting it make an idiot of you! What anger? Was I supposed to be angry? Where was I wrong? I've completely forgotten.

BTW, the last idiot that responded uses 50+ characters for field names, table names, query names, form names and report names and thinks that is cool!!! He is probably very sad his own name is so short!!! chuckle Very occasionally I will use table, query, form and report names that are 50+ characters long. Not, to my knowledge, field names. However when you're dealing in an app with 160 tables, 1200 queries, 450 forms, 350 reports and 70,000 lines of code sometimes you have to get a bit wordy. The relationships diagram is the full 4' width of the relationships window and about 3' tall. Stephen Lebans had to make me a special utility to stitch the relationships windows together just so we could print it. The maximum report size is 22" x 22", IIRC, and that was way too small.

[OT] calculate values in a form
Dear Tony:
The relationships diagram is the full 4' width of the relationships window and about 3' tall. Stephen Lebans had to make me a special utility to stitch the relationships windows together just so we could print it. The maximum report size is 22" x 22", IIRC, and that was way too small. If you ask me, that *has* to qualify as some kind of art! One day, when I create my "Access Lair" in the basement, I'm going to ask you for a signed copy of that printout, and frame it for hanging! g Cheers! -- Fred Boer - Amateur Access Enthusiast Interests: Library software / Z39.50 / Web Services Freeware Small Library Application available he http://www3.sympatico.ca/lornarourke/

If you ask me, that *has* to qualify as some kind of art! I've heard of two systems a bit larger, one that had 220 tables. One day, when I create my "Access Lair" in the basement, I'm going to ask you for a signed copy of that printout, and frame it for hanging! g Sure, but I'll have to find a plotter to print it on. I fired that client a while back due to a new *rsehole manager type who thought he knew something about software so I don't have access to a plotter any more. BTW I'm told by some MS folks that the relationships diagram was hanging in a hallway at Microsoft for six months or a year. Folks would walk by and say "That was done in Access?!!?!"
