Default A calculation in a form

Unless there is some business reason, (like say for audit purposes) you never
store calcualtions. They just take up space and memory. Instead, maybe try
putting the calculations in a query and refernce the query from your form so
that every time you run the form it gives you fresh calculations.

The form I use to enter purchasing data calculates a total cost per order,
but it doesn't put this info into the data table. How do I get it to do this?
(All the other data from the form goes to the corresponding field in the
table)
