Hi,
I have created a form in Acrobat with some calculation fields. The calculations are not working though. Does anybody have any ideas as to why that might be? I followed the steps of picking the two fields that create the product of the calculated field. When data is entered though nothing happens in the calculated field.

Any help is appreciated!
Thank you,
Lisa

Not much information for analysis.

Did you use Acrbat FormTool or LiveCycle Designer?

If LiveCycle Designer, what scripting language (FormCalc or JavaScript)?

Are you getting any error or warning messages in the JavaScript Debugging console?

What is the code for the calculation?

Where exactly is the code located? Calculation Tab Custom Calculation Script, Document Level, Folder Level, Validation, etc

Hi,
I figured it out. I wasn't choosing the right fields. I have several line items, so I thought choosing Qty and Price would work, but I needed to choose Qty0.0 and Price0.0, then 0.1, 0.2 and so forth. The calculation worked fine then.

Thanks for trying to help.
