Hello all,

I have developed several interactive PDF forms using Acrobat 5.0. I have now
upgraded to Acrobat 6.0. In one of my forms, I have a few hidden fields that
are used to calculate the amount owed by the customer when they submit the
form. 

After opening the file in Acrobat 6 and then doing a "Save As", people using
Acrobat 5 and Acrobat Reader 5, have problems with the calculations. When
the amount is calculated, it writes over the text with the new amount
instead of replacing it. 

As far as I know, I am just using the standard calculation functionality in
Acrobat. I didn't change anything in the form field properties, so I think
this is an error between the two versions of the Adobe software. When I test
the form using Acrobat 6 and Adobe Reader 6, the amount is updated without
any problems. 

Has anyone run into this problem? What do I need to change in the field
properties to fix this error.

Thanks,
