BF Calc Value to New Field in New Record

[DocZiyad]

I'm still new to FMPro. I'm currently using ver 4.1 & still deliberating upgrading to 5. Anyhow my problem is like this:

In each record there would be 3 fields:

( for example )

Field A : 20

Field B : 30

Field C : 50 (calc field)

For the next record, I want to bring forward the calculated Field with value 50 into Field B as an opening balance. So the next record would be like this :

Field A : 35

Field B : 50 (brought froward from 1st record )

Field C : 85 (calc field)

Sound very simple to do but so far, actually being more than 3 weeks, but I'm still lost.

Please help me. TIA.

Field B, Auto-Enter Value From Previous Record. Set this in the Field Definations.
