Hi,

If we add the operational symbol to the filed, it had to be changed to text filed. Thus, we can't do the calculation based on the text filed.

Please try the 2 workarounds:

1. Add the Numeric in different field and calculate between the fields.

2. Create a form, add two Text Box Controls (Named A and B) . Then we can use VBA coding/programing to add a event to calculate some Numeric which you enter in A. It'll show the result in B.

For the further question about the coding/programing, please post the thread in Access Dev forum of MSDN:
