Im currently creating an order form. I have it setup where the columns calculate correctly however Im un able to set it where it calculates with two decimal places. Ex: field 1 ($4.00) x field 2 (2)= field 3 ($8.00) right now all im getting is 4x 2=8 is there anyway to fix this?

You need to set the formatting options for these fields. If this is an AcroForm PDF then this is a tab on the Field Properties dialog. Right click on the field and select "Properties" off the popup menu. If this is a LiveCycle Designer form then the formatting is set from the "Object" panel.
