So I've created an Acrobat form, and I want to use the calculate feature for some of the fields, to enter the results into another field. And that's working great. But I also then want to calculate the total from that field plus another field, with results to end up in a third field. And I can't seem to get it to work.
Is it because one of the fields used in the calculation gets its total from other fields as opposed to direct input?
Really? From my file, or did you create your own? So you were able to get "Total Fee Write-Off Amount" and "Total OOP Write-Off Amount" to sum into "Total Write-Off Amount" (the third field in the gray bar)? Using the same settings as mine?
Yes, in my own file. I had a chance to examine your file more closely and I found the issue for this error.
Somehow (my guess is you created the fields in InDesign, not Acrobat), you were able to insert a space at the end of the field name of "Total OOP Write-Off Amount", which causes it not to be picked up by any scripts.
Remove that space and it should work correctly.
