"Formula" to do multiplication for total column in form

[jimihndrks]

I am new to Access, but want to create a total column in my form. I have one field for "number of disks" and one field for "number of sets". I want to take and multiply these two fields to get a "total number of disks" field. What is the best way to write this and how [specifically], do I do this. I have Access 95 v7.0.<br>

Were you with "Jimi James & the Blue Flames" in the early sixties?<br>
<br>
The ControlSource for your control (text box?) can be a formula the references other controls. For example:<br>
<br>
=[txtA]*[txtB]<br>
<br>
The builder wizard (... from properties) can help you build the statement.<br>
