I have a form that has 5 numeric fields. I want to create a text box that will populate with an error message if the sum of Fields 1 through 4 do not equal field 5.

When do you want this message to appear? When field 5 is edited? When fields 1-4 are edited? Something else?

Field 5 is entered 1st - it is the total. Fields 1-4 are the breakout, there for should always equal Field 5. I guess once Field 1 is edited would the the time for the message to pop up.

I would at least recommend not using a pop-up, then, but something like a (read-only) text field with a warning message.

Yes, that's what I was trying to do. I said pop-up but I meant a text field where the warning message would populate.
