    Scoreboard

    Need some help, please. I have created a "scoreboard" to type in and project results of a contest. I've used input fields for each category (1A, 1B, 1C, etc) and an input field to total these (1Total). I've tried to get the 1Total field to total 1A+1B+C, etc. but can't figure out how.

    Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Exactly! With the total being the sum of numbers in the input fields.

    Scorecard

    Mindstitchdr, the total field doesn't display/calculate the other fields. That's what I need to do. (I thought you were asking a format question.) How can I caculate and display the total when I input numbers into the input fields?

    Thanks.

    OK. On my example if you enter a number in the first field, then the second, then the third, then the fourth, then you hit the text Total it will add the numbers from all four inputs and display the results in the fifth input box. Is this not what you needed?

    No problem. I should have used a button instead.

    You can do the same sort of thing without having to click for a total so you get a constantly updated total as you enter or delete numbers. Just another approach.

    Thanks to all who helped on this. Here's a "generic" (non-client specific) version for anyone who can use it.
