This is probably very basic, but what is the code to have one field equal a different field. Example, I want the value to field 218 to carry over to field 263. Many thanks!

Thank you so much. I knew it was basic, and I also knew that fields with same name contained the same information. Just slow, this morning. Thanks again!

For the 'Calculation' tab for 'field263':
1. You can use the "The value is the [u]sum(+)[/u] of" and select the 'field218'.
2. You can use the "Simplified Field Notation" and etnter the field name 'field218'.
3. You can use the "Custom Calculation Script' with the following code:
