Flash rookie needs help with error messages when making simple calculator in AS3.

Tags: #error #as3 #action_script_3 #string #variable #cs6 #calculator #rookie #error_messages #help_needed

I am trying to make a simple calculator I have been following this guide:

this is my code.

var Hnum:String;

var PCnum:String;

var calc:Number = 25;

var Total:String;

num1.restrict = "0-9";

num2.restrict = "0-9";

Est_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, calculate);

function calculate(event:MouseEvent):void{

Hnum = num1.txt;

PCnum = num2.txt;

Total = parseInt(Hnum) * calc;

Total.toString();

Total_txt.text = String(Total);

}

I am getting these 3 errors:

Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 14

1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.text:TextField to an unrelated type String.

Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 15

1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.text:TextField to an unrelated type String.

Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 16

1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Number to an unrelated type String.

I have two input text boxs named num1 and num2 and then one dynamic text box named Total_txt.

This should be so simple I really don't know what im doing wrong?

Any help would be really appreciated.
