Hello everyone! I hope you can help me with an issue I am having with one of my forms.
The form in question is an itemized breakdown of credits and charges for an account.
There are 7 items which are considered to be credits. There is a total field which
shows the total of these 7 items. There are then 18 items which are considered to be
charges and again there is a total field which shows the total of these 18 items.
Finally the last field on the page calculates the total credits minus the total
charges. This form works well when the information is entered in an ordely fashion.
However, if once all the information is entered a change is made to any of the credit
or charge fields, the last field (credits - charges) does not recalculate.
So say, initially, we have a total of $1297.00 for the credits and a total of $1087.00
for the charges. Credits (1297.00) minus charges (1087.00) equals a refund of
$210.00. Now the user realizes that she has entered $25.00 on item 2 for the credits
which should not be there. She deletes the $25.00 on line 2 so the total for credits
recalculates to become $1272.00. This in turn would cause the amount of the refund to
be $25.00 less or $185.00. The problem is that the refund of $210 still shows and
does not recalculate if a change is made.
Is there some kind of script I can use which would prompt the last field to
recalculate if any of the previously entered information is changed? If anyone is
confused or needs more information please let me know. This form is used on a daily
basis by many people so I would like to correct this problem as soon as I can. Thanks
in advance for any advice you can offer.
