Form Toolbox

I am using the Form toolbox and have added Text Form
Fields and formatted to Currency. I then want the bottom
field to calculate the total. I thought it would be as
simple as changing the properties Type to Calculations and
then adding a formula such as =Sum(Text1 + Text2 + Text
3). This does not work. How should I go about this.

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

Have done that and still not working. I am in Office 97 -
does that make a difference?
