Hello, I am sure this may have been asked before but I don't have the time to scroll through all the topics so I humbly ask the Form Gods for a little pity.

I am trying to create an invoice form that has a few combo boxes, where the user will select a certain option, I want that option to populate a text field with the amount due.

Example: A sponsor uses the Combo Box and there are these choices: Exhibitor, Sponsor, Elite Sponsor. The sponsor selects "Elite Sponsor" I want the text field next to it to automatically populate as $1000 dollars, Exhibitor ($500) Elite ($2000)

Set the "Export value" to the numeric value without any formatting except for a decimal place if needed. Then set the text field to the display format desired and add the calculation script to get the value of the combo box.
