Howlong code
Walter Cronkite

I just implemented the Howlong code and I love it!
I came across a little problem though, when I use a continuous form:
I only have 2 fields, the NameField and the CustomerSince Field. The customersince is showing the calculated result from the Howlong code, for example "2 months".
But all entries in the list show the same value. It is the value of the entry, that is selected.
Is there an easy way to fix that, or am I doing anything wrong?

Thank you very much in advance!

How are you using the Function!
In the form, in the query that's backing the form?

Thanks for the reply!
The howlong function is in the global mod.
Then I use the code directly in the form using the form_current event.

So which field is it referencing?

You'd want it wrapping the Date field in the detail section of the continuous form
But depending how many rows you have I'm not sure how performant that would be.
