|
|
Hi all,
I've started using LibreOffice a couple of months back and have some intermediate knowledge of MS Access.
I've been scratching my head for a few hours already and in desperation I'm submitting this post. (I've searched around but can't find an answer... though I'm sure someone must have posted a similar question before).
So here it goes:
How can a field be recalculated in a *form* after a record change?
For example, if we have
FIELD_01 = 10
FIELD_02 = 2 (update record)
then (after record update) FIELD_03 = FIELD_01 * FIELD_02
In access this sort of thing (maybe in an incorrectly structured way) was easy to do. But still struggling with LibreOffice...
*Note:* I'm aware that calculations should be done on a Table/ Query level, but what if it's something very complex and it needs to be done via a Macro in Basic and within the Form?
Any help much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
