I Have three fields, Date_Completed, Cycle, and Date_Due which I would like to use in a maintenance database to forcast when a completed task will be next due.

Date_Completed = Shortdate
Cycle = How often this task is completed in days.
Date-Due - to be calculated by the databse.


I would like the Date_Due field calculated after the Date_Completed and Cycle are entered. Can this be done directly in the table?

It can't be done in the table and it should not be done. If you need the Date_Due, you can always calculate it in a query or expression in a control source.
