When I "Reset" my form Calculation Fields break - Acrobat Pro 10.1.16

Acrobat Pro 10.1.16

I have a very simple calculation form I've built for a client. But when I RESET the fields, some of the fields fail to calculate. If I go to Edit>Properities and just click on the add field button (I make no changes) these fields start working.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Here's the file in my box.com account https://app.box.com/s/fpvhq17bf0mxpt1g39bm7ld9kb0loua4

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is the field calculation order is not correct. It should work as you want once you set it to what makes sense for the form.

Here is some clarification information.

The two fields I'm having trouble with are the bottom fields just above the orange and green calculate buttons.

So I've added some more images to further clarify the issue. The first image is the result as it should be. The second image shows where all the fields are in the form. The third and fourth images show what I have as the formulas I'm using. The next image is the Properties I have the "RESET" button set to.

And the last image shows what happens after I select the RESET button and re-enter the data in the first column input fields. The left column with the underlines are the only input fields. All others are auto-calculate fields

I hope that helps make better sense.

As far as I can tell, you cannot upload PDF's to this forum. So if you'd like to look at the original document you'll need to download it from my box.com account, Here's the link https://app.box.com/s/fpvhq17bf0mxpt1g39bm7ld9kb0loua4

I downloaded it, of course, and opened it in Acrobat Pro XI. This is what I see:

Did you maybe add the fields in InDesign?

There are no fields in this file, except for the button... What calculations are you talking about?

Try67, hanks for the quick response. Did you download the file or just look at the image I had. I don't see how you can upload a PDF to this forum.
