Calculation in Forms

G

Guest

I am using Word 2003; creating a form with a text field (calculation) with
the formula =sum(above). Ticked calculate on exit, but it will only work if I
save the form or exit and then re-enter. It will not update. How can I get
the form to update the total?
Thanks

You must check the "Calculate on exit" box for each form field that
contributes to the calculation.
