editing calculation fields

[Brainiac58]

Is there a way to set a field that receives a calculated result so that it can be edited (deleted and a usere defined result entered if needed)?

Thanks

Use the Auto Enter Function for the Field.

Select the field in Define Fields

Click on Options

click on Auto Enter

Click on the "Calculated Value"

Enter the calculation

click on Okay

De-Select the option below the "Calculate Value"

"Do not replace existing value (if any)

The usual way is to use two fields: an "entry" field, and a calc field. The calc field basically says "if the entry field has something in it, display the entry, otherwise display ".
