Hi
I have a form on which one field is a metric.
there is a later field with the imperial equivalent - how can i get it to
default to this ?

I've tried
[Distance (imp)] =[Distance (metric)]*0.6213712
in the default value, beforeupdate and afterupdate events, and it doesn't
seem to make any difference - the value 0 is always displayed and updated to
the table ? What could I be doing wrong ?

One way is to have this as the After Update event for the MetricValue
control:[ImperialValue] = [MetricValue] * Conversion Factor
