Here is my situation

Okay, so a little background first.
I am a high school student in our school's IHT (In-House Training) class and I am in charge of creating forms and I created the school's employment applications and designed the back cover of our agenda last year.

This year I have been asked to create a PDF form that is basically a digital version of a paper the teachers have been using for the state or something.
My task was to get program to calculate the percent of "P" (for pass or they could tell what that field is asking for). I have gotten it to calculate correctly but here is when the real challenge comes in.
The teacher who was asking for it wants me to make it so that when the student clicks a button, it calculates the total percentage and that a student can't change some answers.
My problem is I can't figure out how to program it to calculate on the click of a button. If I were using Vb it would be no problem but I have to use LC designer, which I don't mind that much.

Any help?

Program it just like you would in VB. That is, in the click event of the button, enter the formula

c=a + b

where a, b, and c are the names of your fields.
