    the best way to do it, is creating a new display or return method in the table.

    Add a string control in the form and call the method in the table, otherwise your calculation will always show in all the records in the grid the same value.

    Try this, and if you have more question I will help.

    Hi Devid,

    You can do this calculation in multiple ways!

    1.In table you can do this by using ModifiedField method.

    but it will effect on everywhere which you used that calculation.

    2.In form design> wherever you want do that calculation you need to do coding in that field.

    in that field > modified field > do code here!

    this type of calculations will be done in form level, this is the best practice

    Please refer my blog, it may usefull for you.

    Hi Tatiana Garcia Ramos and Suresh potlakayala

    Thanks for your response, I'm expecting Actual balance = opening balance - closing balance.

    Can you please suggest any code for this?

    Hi Devid,

    Try this code!
    public void modifiedField(FieldId _fieldId)
    {
       YourTable        yourTable;

       super(_fieldId);

        switch (_fieldId)
            {
                case fieldNum(YourTable, opening balance):
                case fieldNum(YourTable, closing balance):

                this.Actual balance = this.opening balance - this.closing balance

                Break;

           }

    }

    Thanks

    Suresh
