Field calculations

[Vaughn Clement]

Hi All

 Have you ever had a problem where the won't calc. I changed the field
names to 1 word each to make it easy for the calc? That did not fix it. I
put it in a button, didn't work. Changed back to an on Closefield script
and it does not work. JUST STUPID LC! This app has several calculations and
I can't get the first one to work!

Thank you

Vaughn Clement
