What are the actual values of the fields?

Participant

004+00 - 010+50 = 650

These are references on some engineering alignment sheets that measure distance.

004+00 is 400'

010+50 is 1050'

650 is 650'

The Format setting influences what the value of the field looks like, not its actual value.

What does this line of code produce when the value of Text1 is "004+00":

this.getField("Text1").valueAsString
