I am using Word 2003 and I have a form that I need to calculate the total for
other fields in the form as they are filled in by the user, but when I
protect the document and test by entering information, the form field for the
total will not calculate. I have set the "Calculate on Exit" flag (but I
really do not want that, I want the field to calculate as the user enters
values in the sub-fields.) Any ideas/information would be appreciated.
 
You must check the box for "Calculate on exit" in each of the form fields
that contribute to the calculation.
 
Thank you so much Suzanne, that did the trick.
