Calculating totals

[Corinne]

Hi,

I have a fairly simple project that I'm having a problem with. I need to calculate a total based on the quantity inputted into a text box. The calculation is based on the following. First text box (RetAmt) will always default to 50 and the second text box (NoItems) will always default to 1. The user will have the option to change the NoItems at any time. I would like to show the amount in the RetAmt box to multiply by 50 each time the quantity is changed. ie:
if user enters 1 then result is 50 (default)
if user enters 2 then result is 100
if user enters 3 then result is 150

you get the picture.

I only want the two text boxes on teh form not 3. I would like the RetAmt box to change value base on the quantity the user selects. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Corinne

In the NoItem changed event do this:

Private Sub txtNoItems_Change()
txtRetAmt.Text = cStr(val(txtNoItems.Text) * 50)
End Sub -Chris Didion
