It blows, because you're using a value in your calculation that might not be available yet. Create the table, and a view - add the second computed field to the view.
Alternatively, you could use a normal (non-calculated) field, and update it's contents using a trigger.

Eddy,
Thanks for that suggestion (views) it worked, but I decided against the idea after following through on the documentation of the table / view as it made it more complex to maintain in this situation.
So sadly I adopted the manual calculations before entering into the table.
Thanks again

As Eddie suggested the Product loading may not exists.
This is not going to make you happy. You can replace [ProductLoading] in your second field with the ENTIRE formula from the first field.
ducks and runs I told you it would not make you happy!

I understood the why it isn't working and was trying to see if there was another way to do this computationally.
while I did consider the approach you suggested, I also have to write detailed documentation around this insurance rating API and was looking for a easy / elegant solution that would make documentation easy and clear.
With the documentation in mind I decided that it would be easier for me to explain the columns and how they are calculated manually.

Why two dots? Does not look correct.

this is ok in my frame work
and you use this query with one dot
my problem is in join but not in dots
thank you for reply

You forget to include the error, and a hint as to which DBMS you're using.
Assuming MS SQL, try:
UPDATE
F
SET
[ReferenceGuid] = M.[Guid]
FROM
[Common]..[com_Files] As F
INNER JOIN [PersonnelSystem]..Missions As M
ON F.ReferenceID = M.ID
WHERE
F.[ReferenceFlag] = 72
AND
F.[ReferenceGuid] Is Null
AND
F.[ReferenceSoftwareGuid] = '66944D9C-31F4-4594-9407-4E1F64C079D9'
;

SET [ReferenceGuid] = ( SELECT mission.[GUID]
FROM dbo.Mission mission
WHERE mission.ID = [ReferenceID]
)
WHERE [ReferenceSoftwareGuid] = '66944D9C-31F4-4594-9407-4E1F64C079D9'

Don't store dates as strings. Change the column to datetime (or datetime2(0) if you're using SQL 2008 or higher), and then query for BookDate >= @Today And BookDate < @Tomorrow.

If you are wondering why your other post was removed (in less than 10 minutes!), it was because of the "urgency". We're volunteers, answering questions in our spare time. Had you included it with your question, then the question would have been gone too.
If you want an answer "fast", then you better make sure that there's a clear problem description, and some example-code showing what you tried to achieve. You might also want to include a subject-line that's a bit more descriptive; posts in the database-forum usually have some SQL, and it doesn't give a clue of what you're doing.

Just in case you did not take Richard seriously - DO NOT STORE DATES AS TEXT, USE THE DATETIME DATATYPE. This is the basis of your problem.
How do I make that red, can I make it flash, can I make it jump through the monitor and thump it into the desk?

use trunc(your_field name)= trunc(sysdate) or sysdate-1 for yesterday.
or trunc(field_name)='12-apr-2012'

What database is this for as it doesn't look like a SQL Server cursor

It looks like Oracle PL/SQL to me(I used this 7+ months ago so I could be wrong...)

Not used Oracle for a while but I would have a read of this Stackoverflow: pl-sql cursor[^]
it shows how you would construct your cursor. I think your problem is here

it should be

i mentioned 'AS' instead of 'IS'..
the complete cursor is
CURSOR cur IS select a from abc.
