Microsoft Access Overflow Error Message

An overflow error is when a calculation results in a number thatis too big to be stored in a field or variable. For example an Integer field can not store a value greater then 64K, so you will get an over flow when you multiply two numbers (eg. 12345 by 10000) that is greater than 64K. Another way to get an overfloe is by dividing a number by a really small value such as.00000001 and sometimes even 0. You may be getting these errors because you are doing something (summing or multiplying?) some numbers that were ok before, but have increased to the point of overflow.
