Correct answer gkaiseril

The first option under the calculation tab is for computation actions that usually require the same action to be performed on multiple fields for an answer. This is not the usual case for subtraction. Once could use the value of the field to subtract multiplied by -1.

You can use the Simplified Field Notation or the Custom JavaScript options.

You might want to look at some of the many tutorials about Acrobat forms and calculations that are available for free.

Unless your divisor is a non-zero constant you will need to use the Custom JavaScript Calculation option so you can control the flow othe code to avoid division by zero.
