Attached is a link to the photos of my invoice form. I have the following columns:

Q=QTY.

$=$

DISC1=DISCT.

SUB=SUBTOTAL

I would like the subtotal to accurately calculate from the corresponding row values. Essentially the calculation of (Q1*$1)-(DISC1/100) so that the discount column presents as 35% instead of .35 when I present it to clients.

Then, how do I code SUBTOTAL as empty when the corresponding rows are empty.

You need a simple if-condition. See: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/conditional-execution

thank you! those articles in conjuction were perfect for my puzzle. I ended up with this:

event.value = (this.getField('Q1').value && this.getField('$1').value && this.getField('DISC1').value) ? ((this.getField('Q1').value*this.getField('$1').value)-(this.getField('DISC1').value/100)) : "";

It is best not to ask "how to code" because it can be seen as just asking us to write your code for you. Most of us are more interested in giving you what you need to learn how to write your own.

I did take the articles that try67 sent to me, as per my request on "how to code" and I came up with a code that works perfectly

event.value = (this.getField('Q1').value && this.getField('$1').value && this.getField('DISC1').value) ? ((this.getField('Q1').value*this.getField('$1').value)-(this.getField('DISC1').value/100)) : "";

you've misinterpreted my intentions. I love finding the "why" behind the code, not just the "how"
