Working With Bookmarks

[Bill Bradshaw]

I am just getting started building forms. I have a formula in a table 1 cell
that I have assigned a bookmark to and want to access the calculated value in
formula in a cell in table 2. When I try to use the bookmarked table 1 value
in table 2 it is completely different from the value calculated in the
bookmarked cell in table 1.

I hope people can figure out what I think is a confusing paragraph I wrote
above.

For example the calulated value of the bookmarked cell in table 1 is 100 but
when I try to use it in table 2, table 2 thinks it is 200.

I could sure use your help.

Hi Bill,

If your problem field is a formfield performing a calculation, that's the likely source of the problem. For more information on this
and how to work around it, check out my Word Field Maths 'tutorial', at:

It is a formula in a table cell and relates to my question "Trying Understand
Formulas In Tables." I am by this one but not by the other one.
