Does anybody know how to calculate totals with front page
2002?

I have a form where there are fields where you have to
enter numbers. I would like to have a place at the bottom
where I can calcule totals using entries in the fields
within the form.

Regards,

Samuel
 
Requires JavaScript. Do a search for JavaScript Form Calculation scripts.

Samuel,

FrontPage doesn't have any capability for this. What you need is either to
use server side scripting or a JavaScript to run in the user's browser. I'm
guessing that you don't have server side scripting available or you don't
know how it's done. That leaves JavaScript.

I did a Google search for "javascript form calculations column totals" and
here's one of the scripts that I came up with:
http://hotarea.com/fast/display.exe?show+javascript&miscellaneous&miscCalculate.html

The rest of the hits weren't as good. You may want to try refining the
search terms and see what you can come up with. At a minimu, that link I've
provided should give you an idea of how this will work.

Good luck!
