Well, i don't know hw to explain it but,
I did something like this
sql = "select 50 + amount_paid From tbl1 where id=" & userID
Where 50 is a fixed amount and amount_paid is a tbl field in dbase
So, whenever you want to view user's records it will addup the amount
Asuming, if the user enter $100 in the form. When selecting to view the sql we run to add 50 + 100 which will displayed $150
But is not working. Please help me out. ------------- NgWebDesigns |

This will depend on the data type you have amount_paid in. Don't use money or so. If amount_payed is numeric, float or so, it should work fine. Also, they way you do it will no generate the right column name do something like Select 50 + amount_paid as adjusted_paid from tbl1...... and then select it with rs("adjusted_paid") ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |

Why are you storing an Integer in a text field? Use a Number field instead |

How about: SELECT (SELECT amount_paid FROM tbl1) + 50 As adjusted_paid Or if that doesn't work just use SELECT amount_paid FROM tbl1 then when you loop through records use: Dim adjusted_paid adjusted_paid = CInt(rs("amount_paid")) + 50 |
