Hi, can someone take a look at this stamp and let me know what I am doing wrong, I was battling with this all of yesterday…  I can get the prompted entry to appear when I insert the stamp but it doesnt populate the field once inserted

    So, the calculation code needs to be qualified. This code is called both when the stamp is selected from the stamp menu and when the stamp is applied.  It’s possible that the double call is causing a timing or context issue.
