Hi NFL,

Beware of trying to reference a formfield calculation in a subsequent
formfield. The results are unlikely to be what you'd expect.

Thank you for your help! It worked? :-)

Select Calculation as the Type in the Text Form Field Options dialog,
then create your formula in the Expression box following the same rules
as for an = field in ordinary text (in your example, it would be "=
Text1 * Text2"). Be sure to check the box for "Calculate on exit" in the
Form Field Options for each form field that contributes to the
calculation so that the calculated field will update automatically.

MS Word 2003 - I'm in the "Text Form Field Options" dialog box and
would like
to know how to calculate two form fields (texboxes) and pass the value
to the
third form field?. For example: textbox1 * textbox2 = textbox3

Also, is there a limit of how many form fields I can calculate?

Thank you,
