I need to enter a fraction into one of the fields on my form. I want to use a letter for each fraction like w=1/16, e=1/8, etc up to k=15/16. I would like to be able to enter the letter into the field but have the fraction displayed and the decimal equivalent available for other uses. I am unsure how to accommplish this.

I want to type an E, disply 1/8 on the form and store .125 for calculations.

Thanks,

Greg
