To create the formula for the Description Field, get into its Field Formula 
screen. When there, hit F4 and then cursor to the Code Field and hit F5. This 
will bring you to the second panel. Cursor to the Description Field in the 
second panel and hit F4. Now set the update conditions for that formula. 
Done.
