Help please: Check box to return value from another field

If you haven't solved this, I have a similar sample I can email.
It's a billing/shipping address checkbox that you can modify

This is a tricky one. You can easily create a button that copies values from one set of fields to the other. But this is a one time operation and it sounds like you need the data to be automatically copied (continously) when the check box is checked. The best solution is to use a calculation script in the InstallationAddress fields to aquire the values from the InvoiceAddress fields.

The trick of course is to get the copy to turn off when the check box is unchecked. Here's a script that should be placed in the Mouse Up event for the check box. It will turn calculations on and off in the InstallationAddress field.

Of course you want to start off with the field set for user entry, so place this script in the Initialize event of the InstallationAddress field.

I am trying to incorporate the above code into my form. I have a subform where you can add and delete instances, a subtotal field which adds up the subform fields, tax rate field and sales tax field. If the tax rate is 0, the user can override the sales tax; otherwise, it is calculated. When calculation script is enabled, the subtotal is adjusted every time a new instance is created or deleted. However, if the calculation script is disabled, the value I entered for sales tax will disappear every time a new instance of the subform is added.

Don't disable the calculation, make it conditional instead so that the calculations flow as normal, but the result in the tax field is set to zero.

I would like to see the sample please. I am encountering a similar problem. Found out the scripts for a same billing/shipping check box are different if using LiveCycle Designer.

Stripped down version:

textfield named address - labeled on the form as Billing Address

Check box labeled "same as billing"

Textfield named address - labeled Shipping

Binding set for Global on the 2 address fields.

On the checkbox click:

if ($.rawValue==1)then
form1.button.presence="visible"
else form1.button.presence="hidden"
endif
