Ratio calculation

I have a simple ratio calculation to perform as seen below:

if (this.getField("HiBrach").value=="")

{

event.value="";

}

else

{event.value=this.getField("HiAnk").value / this.getField("HiBrach").value;

}

"HiBrach" is derived from multiple (3) fields with a maximum value calculation performed before the ratio operation.

This works no problem.

However, how does the script change if "HiAnk" is also made up multiple fields with a Maximum value calculation.

I haven't been able to solve this!?

Just make sure the calculation order is correct. That's all that maters.

Hi Thom,

Thanks for the response.

In checking the calculation order as suggested, I discovered a syntax error!!!

I did have to adjust the order however, thanks.

It's always something because code is complicated and must be exact.

It doesn't change at all... Is it not working?
