QUESTION: Access 2010 version 14.0.7106.5003 (32-bit) I have an assignment involving math calculations. I know how to create simple formulas in Excel but am lost in Access.

I just took your entire Beginners Course and as you know it does not cover formulas or rather expressions.

I am simply trying to create a "Check Book Register" and am stuck.

I cannot seem to get the "Balance Forward" column to work. (I can do it in Excel but my assignment is to do this in Access.)

EXPERTISE: Extremely experienced in Office Suite, except Access. Have been in DB maintenance most of my 25+ year career. Never have created one from scratch until this week.

This is not that easy to do in Access. See this thread: RUNNING BALANCE.
