Script failed -formcalc

[davidcornett]

Hello,

I'm very new to LiveCycle Designer, and I'm getting the error message: "Script failed (language is formcalc; context is xfa....Error:syntax error near token '(' on line 3 column 0.

I'm simply adding some numeric fields together. The calculation works fine but I want to get rid of this error message-any ideas?

Here is the code that I have in the Script Editor:

form1.Page2.TotalEnrollment::calculate - (FormCalc, client)

TotalEnrollment.rawValue = NumericField1.rawValue + NumericField2.rawValue

This doesn't make any sense-I don't even have a "(" in my syntax....

Thanks!

Hi,

With FormCalc you do not need .rawValue.

Also as the script is in the object that you want to set the value of, you can use $ instead of the object name.

Try:

$ = NumericField1 + NumericField2

Check that you don't have an error elsewhere, as I suspect that this may be the problem.

It turns out there was an incomplete string of code above what I posted. "sum(" from where I was experimenting earlier.  Thanks for the info-it'll save me some time.
