JavaScript - Want to calculate sum of certain fields, but only if dropdown next to each field has a particular value showing. Graphic included.

[#1]

Here's the English version of what I'm trying (and failing) to do:

The plain English version of the calculation I’m trying to make for each of the “Total” fields.

Allow value from “c1_w_1”, IF field “camp_1” = “Dougy”

+

Allow value from “c1_w_2”, IF field “camp_2” = “Dougy”

+

Allow value from “c1_w_3”, IF field “camp_3” = “Dougy”

and so on...

It feels as though it needs to be a doc sript and not a field properties script. Below is a graphic to illustrate the functionality I'm trying to recreate in this PDF form.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!!!

It can certainly be a field script.

See these tutorials for some help with this:

Thank you for sending those lnks. I read through them and was able to understand what they explain, for the most part) but I'm still running into a brick wall on getting this to work. 😕

You can use this code as the custom calculation script of your field:

var total = 0;
if (this.getField("camp_1").valueAsString=="Dougy") total+=Number(this.getField("c1_w_1").valueAsString);
if (this.getField("camp_2").valueAsString=="Dougy") total+=Number(this.getField("c1_w_2").valueAsString);
if (this.getField("camp_3").valueAsString=="Dougy") total+=Number(this.getField("c1_w_3").valueAsString); // etc.
event.value = total;

That did it! You're a genious - I had been seeing mention of valueAsString, but did not think it would be the way for me to go at all!!! Thank you so much!
