Calculation in form field

Keep It Simple Stupid

I have created a form (that will be filled out differently every time). The
form is protected.
Within the form, there is a table with 3 columns:
Unit Price - Quantity - Total
I need the Total column to automatically calculate (UnitPrice X Quantity)

There is a form field in the first two columns for the user to enter
numbers.

I have tried putting a form field in the Total Columns as a calculation
(=A2*B2), but it only calculates the first time. In other words, if I "blank
out"or change the number in the Quantity column or the Unit Price, the total
doesn't update.

How can I get this to work?

Have you checked the "Calculate on exit" box for all the fields that
contribute to the calculation? Note, however, that this may be triggered
only by tabbing out of the box, not just by moving the mouse.
