So I have a textbox called "Preferences" that contain values. I want to create a new field called "GRA" that is populated by values from "Preferences" if certain criteria is met. I noticed I can make the control source for the new field "GRA" set to "Preferences" but then anytime "Preferences" contains a value, it is also in "GRA". I just wanted certain values to be populated in "GRA".
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
That is not a proper database design. Can you explain the reasoning behind "needing" such a thing?
