Condition Logic for Check Box and Text Field with a Calculation

[Stephanie25311838bqgv]

I'm back, again with another stumper. I also get my questions answered and am grateful for the help.

I have a field ("Hours") with a simple sum calculation, however, I am hoping that I can find a way that if a check box (Check Box1) is ticked, then the "Hours" field will display 0. Likewise in reverse. If that same check box is unticked, then the "Hours" field will revert to the original calcualtion. Is there a way to do this?

Thank you!

Yes,

if(this.getField("Check Box1").value == "Off")
{// Checkbox is unchecked
   .. Original calculation ...
}
else// Checkbox is checked. 
   event.value = 0;

Thank you for your reply. This is not working. I copied and pasted, insterted the original calucation where indicated. I am getting a Syntax Error: missing; before statement 4: and line 5.

EDIT: from what I can see, you are missing one '=' sign here: if(this.getField("Check Box1").value == "Off")

[Thom Parker]

Good catch, thanks Nesa, that comparison operator detail is a persistent human error. I fixed it in the post.  

However, that doesn't explain the syntax error, which is in the posters original code.  

Please post your entire calculation script.

Thank you, Nesa.

Would you mind please to post the entire script with your revision? Just to double check, I am using this as a calculation script not a mouse up action javascript, right?

[Nesa Nurani]

The script above is now fixed by Thom, but if you still have an issue, please post your script, so I can take a look.

Thank you. 

if(this.getField("Check Box2.0").value == "Off")
{// Checkbox is unchecked
=Estimated S3 Worker Labor HoursRow1 + Estimated NonS3 Worker Labor HoursRow1
}
else// Checkbox is checked.
event.value = 0;

If those are field names use this:

if(this.getField("Check Box2.0").value == "Off"){
event.value = Number(this.getField("Estimated S3 Worker Labor HoursRow1").valueAsString)+Number(this.getField("Estimated NonS3 Worker Labor HoursRow1").valueAsString);}
else
event.value = 0;

Beautiful! Thank you both, Nesa and Thom!
