Using formulas in Access??

Erik

I am using an Access database to keep track of stats for a Hockey League
which I post on the net using the database. I was wondering if there was any
way to add formulas into the database tables to calculate winning % and total
points? I know its easy to do in Excel but is there any way in Access to
getthe same functionality?

Thank you,

A couple possibilities...

1) keep the raw data in Access (assumes you need the searching and
reporting capabilities) and export query results to Excel for
calculations/analysis.
2) keep the raw data in Access and use queries and reports to do the
calculations.

Good luck

Right now I'm using an ASP script that reads the database tables and updates
my webapge. Can I do the same thing with the queries?
