Hi Andrew, One problem I find with the recalculate event is that any errors in your script don't always show up, they seem to be silently swallowed.  I often put a temporary button on the form and test the script in the click event of that.  Otherwise, it hard to say without seeing the form.  Can you post it on Acrobat.com (or similar) and add the link to this thread?  Bruce

Hi Andrew,

I think is just a logic problem in your form the four sub-areas have been scaled, so if they put in a B for the first sub-area that related to 72 then gets scaled by 0.1 but the total seems to still refer to the 72 value (not the 7.2).

There also seems to be a mismatch between the dropdown values and the code, B is 72 in the code but the code has 72 as a B-

Hi Andrew,

You seem to have a circular dependency in your calculation scripts.  The one in form1.#subform[0].Body.ScoreLetterGen::calculate is updating the field as form1.#subform[0].Body.ScoreLetter::calculate. 

If you can add a xfa.host.messageBox(xfa.form.form1.#subform.ScoreAvg.rawValue) to the form1.#subform[0].Body.ScoreLetter::calculate code you can see that it gets called a lot of times.

You might find it easier to reference the current field using this, and you can remove the reference to the hidden field by using a variable. try something like;

var score = SUM((ScoreAvgGen*.1)+(ScoreAvgJK*.09)+(ScoreAvgJD*.36)+(ScoreAvgOSL*.45))

if ( score == null ) then

this = ""

elseif ( score >= 90 ) then

this = "A"

elseif ( score >= 85 ) then

this = "A-"

elseif ( score >= 77 ) then

this = "B+"

elseif ( score >= 75 ) then

this = "B"

elseif ( score >= 72 ) then

this = "B-"

elseif ( score >= 67 ) then

this = "C+"

elseif ( score >= 65 ) then

this = "C"

elseif ( score >= 62 ) then

this = "C-"

elseif ( score >= 57 ) then

this = "D+"

elseif ( score >= 55 ) then

this = "D"

elseif ( score < 55 ) then

this = ""

endif

Good luck

Bruce
