I need help with a code that will auto populate

[clarissah99296932]

from another field if another field is zero. This would go after the code: event.value=Number(this.getField("EE Net Prem").valueAsString)/ Number(this.getField("multiplier").valueAsString);

Not sure what you're asking, but if you use this code you have to make sure that the value of "multiplier" is not zero first.

[clarissah99296932]

the multiplier is the commission base- so usually I use the net premium/multiplier (typically .85) to populate into the gross premium field. Not all groups have commission. I keep getting an error for "the value entered does not match the format of the field (EE Gross Prem)" when the multiplier is zero.

Is there another way I should write it so it will accept a number or zero?

Use this code:

var v1 = Number(this.getField("EE Net Prem").valueAsString);
var v2 = Number(this.getField("multiplier").valueAsString);
if (v2==0) event.value = "";
else event.value = v1/v2;
