Default how can i enter a formula to tabulate the sum of drop down menu r.

Given that each dropdown field has a bookmark name, you can check the
calculate on exit check box of each field and use a formula field to add the
values of the bookmarks eg

{ ={ REF Dropdown1} + { REF Dropdown2 } + { REF Dropdown3 }}

All brackets are entered with CTRL+F9

I am creating a checklist to rate proposals and am using dropdown menus
with
values of one through four. I would like to be able to "sum" the
responses
at the bottom of each section. Is this possible?
