Hello,

Can anyone tell me how to add 1 to a field when a form is loaded? I have a field that I have set the default value to 0, but each time the form is loaded, I want to add 1 to that field, increasing the number by 1 each time the form is opened.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

Use FormCalc in the docReady:event.

$ = $ + 1
To get it work you have to save the form everytime you close it.

Thanks for the reply radzmar, it worked out great.

For anyone trying this that wants to use Javascript instead of FormCalc, you can use:
this.rawValue =+ 1;
in the docReady as well.
