Hi,

 

It would help if we knew the names of the fields you are trying to use ( I will assume they are called 'A', 'C', with the total going into 'C'

 

 

var fieldA = this.getField("A");
var fieldB = this.getField("B"):

var total= fieldA.value + fieldB.value;

if ( total > 10 ) {
    total = 10;
}

this.getField("C").value = total;

 

 

 This code could be added to the validation of 'A' and 'B', which would mean it would be run everytime the values changed.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Malcolm

    Thanks Malcolm,

    How to add a line to remove any trailing zero from the end of the result?

    correct


    Hi, try this code and see if it is what you wanted:

    var a = this.getField("A").value;
var b = this.getField("B").value;
var x = a+b;
var x1 = x.toFixed(2);
var x2 = x1.replace(".00", "");
event.value = x2;
if( x2 > 10 ){
x2 = 10;
}
event.value = x2;

    Don't format field, leave it at "None".
