I have a unbound field called precentages. Which I got help from a expertm named flyster. (Thank you). Cant seem to find where he put the code.
I look in the properties of the unbound field.
I looked in the form maybe on current.
I clicked on view code. and it didnt  showed up.

what  i am trying to do is total up the percentage done for each unit based on check marks. each check mark is worth a certain percentage i need to change that. But I cant seem to find the code.

The code is the query used as the record source for the form. And Percentages is one field of the query.

the last portion of the query:
...
[OutDuction])/17),"00.0%") AS Percentages, tblTempleFuelcellOnly.Scope FROM tblTempleFuelcellOnly;

The query refers to 17 but you have 18 check boxes.

Open form in design mode. From objects drop down list select form. Then Select Data Tab.
The query is set as the Record Source property.

The Percentages field in the form is bound...
It is bound to a field called "percentages"
Bound field Percentages
Percentages is a field in the form's recordsource/query, ...so there is no "Code":
