how to script text field on master page to show total from detail

[Former Community Member]

I'm trying to get familiar with LiveCycle Designer and need to know how to have fields on the master page reflect detail totals for each page, then a master total at the end. This will be for print output only so I assume the script should run on the server, since I saw that option.

Another question: where can I find documentation for this so I can read other things myself? I have difficulty finding a path to what I need on the website. Thanks

It can be done but it involves some level of scripting. I was going to create a sample for you but figured it woudl be easier just to use your form. If you provide I will put something together for you. make sure to incode a data file that I can work with.

If you want to try it on your own here is a post that describes it:
